Tom Arnold: Mark Burnett Wanted to Murder Me ... At Pre-Emmy Party

Eyewitness Says Tom Arnold Set Mark Burnett Up for Confrontation

Another eyewitness just walked us through what he saw ... he says Mark and Roma were walking up the stairs and stopped at the top to talk to someone. Within seconds, the eyewitness said, "Tom came charging up the steps and it was on." The eyewitness says it was clear Tom was there to confront Mark and, in a flash, Mark had his hands on Tom's throat, and Tom was tearing at Mark's shirt and ripping off his crucifix.

The eyewitness says it was all over in 15 seconds because "Survivor" host Jeff Probst separated them. The eyewitness also says Bryan Fogel was there filming the whole thing and it looked planned because the altercation was quick and without warning.

The eyewitness also says Tom was at the party for several hours telling people about the confrontation.

Tom has a show that premieres Tuesday, and the way the eyewitness put it, "Tom got the reaction he wanted. He got even more than he bargained for."

11:34 AM PT -- Tom just left the police station and provided more detail from the scuffle. He says Burnett choked him so violently he needs a doctor and he truly believed Mark wanted to kill him.

10:50 AM PT -- An eyewitness tells TMZ he saw the altercation this way ... Burnett and his wife, Roma Downey, had just arrived at the party and walked up the staircase to get inside. We're told just as they got to the top stair, Arnold came charging at them and pushed Burnett. The eyewitness says Burnett pushed Arnold back and then Arnold ripped Burnett's crucifix off his neck, breaking it. Arnold said it was a gold chain but in fact, it was a crucifix.

The altercation lasted no more than 30 seconds and they all stayed at the party.

Earlier in the day, Arnold told Salon.com he wanted to confront Burnett at the Emmys ceremony. Arnold also called Burnett a "p***y."

10:15 AM PT -- Tom is currently filing a police report with the LAPD.

I think Roma already posted pics of bruises on her hand that Tom Arnold caused.

Was Tom in an accident or something?
Is he brain damaged? That’s how it’s looking.
PTSD from something, real or imaginary.

2 Burnett isn’t nearly as religious as he wants people to believe

Little Tommy is such a little drama queen. Heavy emphasis on the ‘queen’ part.

Arnold is broke and is desperate to kiss Leftist Butt to get a job.

That means Tom still has not hit Rock Bottom yet.
All in good time, at the rate he’s going.
Tommy Boy is cruisin’ for a bruisin’.
You don’t go around yanking gold chains off of men’s necks, not even middle-aged men.

Yeah he is “Winning” just like Charlie Sheen. He seems like he has a drug problem.
