Lawyer: Charlie Sheen’s wife in intensive care

LOS ANGELES — A lawyer for Charlie Sheen’s wife says she has been placed in intensive care in Los Angeles.

Attorney Yale Galanter said Wednesday that Brooke Sheen was running a fever of 105 degrees when she was taken to Sherman Oaks Hospital. He says the fever came from an infection she developed after oral surgery.

Police in Colorado arrested Charlie Sheen on Dec. 25 in a domestic dispute with his wife.

Galanter says a hearing on the case that was scheduled for Friday will have to be postponed.

Charlie Sheen has denied threatening his wife. A message left Wednesday with Sheen’s agent, Stan Rosenfield, was not immediately returned.

TMZ first reported the hospitalization.
