Mission: Impossible actor Jeremy Renner in Thailand bar fight
Jeremy Renner, the Mission: Impossible actor, escaped unscathed from a bar fight in Thailand, his spokesman said, although a hotel manager in his party was attacked with an axe.
A spokesman for Renner, 40, who also played the lead in Oscar-winning Iraq war movie "The Hurt Locker", denied media reports that the actor was hurt in the bloody incident in the Thai resort of Phuket early on Wednesday.
"Jeremy Renner was indeed in a bar in Phuket Thailand as a vicious attack on a patron took place but was not injured or involved. He exited as the fight took place," his publicist said in a statement.
Renner, who co-stars with Tom Cruise in "Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol", is currently working in the Philippines on "The Bourne Legacy" – the latest in the Bourne action movie franchise, the publicist said.
The Phuket Gazette said on Thursday that six staff at the pub were arrested and charged with attempted murder of the general manager of a local resort hotel.
Manager Vorasit Issara was stabbed in the stomach and slashed in the neck with an axe, Phuket police told local reporters.

Thanks for the links "Dude" - makes more interesting reading than the Torygraph....
Phuket - sounds a wonderful place. Perhaps the alternative pronunciation would be more appropriate.

My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?
