Alec Baldwin has admitted guilt to a harassment charge following an incident related to a dispute over a parking spot, according to information from the Deputy Press Secretary of the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office, as reported by Variety.
The well-known actor from “Saturday Night Live” was handed a conditional discharge on Wednesday and is required to attend a brief anger management course.
Baldwin had initially faced charges of attempted assault in the third degree, classified as a misdemeanor, and harassment in the second degree, considered a violation.
However, he opted to plead guilty to the lesser offense.
Baldwin is scheduled to appear in court once more on March 27 to address this matter further.
In November, Baldwin was apprehended by law enforcement after allegedly engaging in physical violence with another individual over a parking space in New York City.
The victim involved was subsequently transported to a nearby medical facility for treatment.
In tweets that have since been removed, the 60-year-old actor refuted claims on Wednesday that he had physically harmed anyone during the altercation.
“I did not punch anyone as the media suggested.
Such allegations are baseless and severe.
There was a recent incident where a man was fatally punched in New York,” stated Baldwin, who shared a link to an article highlighting a deadly bar brawl that occurred in Queens back in November.
This is not the first time Baldwin has encountered legal troubles.
