New information about Hayden Panettiere's father's early morning arrest: Both Alan Panettiere and his wife, Lesley, were drunk when Alan punched her twice in the face with a closed fist after a night out at Beso, Eva Longoria's restaurant. Also, the violence may have been prompted by Lesley "chatting up" Clint Eastwood's son, Scott Reeves, leaving Alan feeling – in his words – "disrespected."

Hayden Panettiere's father, Alan, decided he wants a piece of the spotlight too — so he went and got arrested for hitting Hayden's mother, Lesley, in the face early this morning.

Alan was charged with a felony count of domestic violence and is being held on $50,000 bail.
