Cops to question Charlie Sheen, Denise Richards about New York night

Police reportedly want to interrogate Charlie Sheen and his ex-wife Denise Richards about his New York hotel incident.

According to sources, NYPD detectives have contacted Sheen's lawyer, Yale Galanter, to try to set up the interview that could happen within the next couple of weeks, reports the New York Post.

But Galanter didn't comment whether he would make Sheen available, TMZ.com reported.

Cops also want to talk to Richards because she was at a dinner that night with Sheen and Anderson before things allegedly got out of control. It's unclear whether they've made contact with her representatives.
 
Anderson filed a criminal-harassment complaint against Sheen with the NYPD on Monday.

Before filing the report, Anderson recounted her frightening night with Sheen on Good Morning America, saying the actor choked her, called her a "whore," threw things at her, and threatened to kill her.

Sheen's camp quickly blasted Anderson as a liar and shakedown artist.

He filed suit in Los Angeles Monday claiming she was trying to extort $1 million from him.
