Actor Christian Slater was arrested early today for allegedly groping a woman on a Manhattan street, police said.
Slater, 35, was accused of touching the woman's buttocks about 1.50am (1500 AEST) said a police spokesman, Detective John Sweeney.
The woman, who was not identified, flagged down police to report the incident, Sweeney said.
Slater was found nearby and the woman identified him as the man who groped her.
Slater, who's appearing on Broadway in The Glass Menagerie, was arrested on a charge of third-degree sexual abuse.
Slater starred in the 1980s classic Heathers, as well as True Romance, and Untamed Heart in the 1990s.
In August 1997, he was arrested after he allegedly bit a man on the stomach and threw a police officer against a wall during a rowdy party in Los Angeles.
The actor later pleaded no contest to the charges and served 90 days in jail.
He filed for divorce earlier this year from television producer Ryan Haddon.
In 2003, Haddon was accused of hitting him with a drinking glass during a fight in their Las Vegas hotel room.
She was jailed briefly, but no charges were filed.

Just emulating his hero, the former Rapist-in-Chief.
I liked his role in PUMP UP THE VOLUME.
It's difficult to be 28 and playing a 17 year old. (sarcasm)
Don't they have the 1 Free Grope Rule Down Under?......... pun intended........
Trash
it amazes me how little these folks donate.Politicians included.
But laws are for the "little people"
Christian Who?
She must've given a description of a drunken man doing a bad Jack Nicholson impression.
How exactly, does a person bite someone on the stomach? Arm/hand? sure. Leg/foot? a little more difficult, but sure. Stomach? Bizarre.
Vastly underrated movie.
One of the finest of it's genre- wall to wall outstanding screenplay by Tarantino and spot on, evocative direction from Tony Scott.
Non stop from start to finish and PACKED with outstanding one liners from Christopher Walken, Gary Oldman, Val Kilmer and Slater.
Fantastic film.
