A Los Angeles judge has ordered Mel Gibson to hand over his lethal weapons — on the same day a photo was released of what Gibson’s gal pal claims is her with busted front teeth courtesy of Gibson.
According to the ruling made at Thursday’s secret court hearing, the psycho screen star must surrender all the firearms he owns, as the nasty custody battle he’s waging with his Russian baby mama, Oksana Grigorieva, continues, RadarOnline reported yesterday.
“Judge Scott Gordon made the ruling, and Mel will be required to submit a declaration with the court within 24 hours of Thursday’s hearing proving that he has done so,” a source told the Web site.
Gibson — a Hollywood pariah thanks to his recorded racist rants — allegedly used a gun to threaten Grigorieva in a violent domestic confrontation in January.
He reportedly waved a gun in her face after hitting her and raged, “I will show you how to get out of here fast!”
Despite the order to hand over his guns, Thursday’s hearing went relatively well for the “Mad Max” star.
His sexy, 40-year-old ex-girlfriend failed in her bid to get sole custody of their 9-month-old daughter, Lucia, and Gibson was able to retain visitation rights.
Yesterday, TMZ.com reported that observers in the court said that Judge Gordon decided that Mad Mel was no threat because of a sworn statement made to the court by his soon-to-be ex-wife, Robyn, who said he never hit her or acted in a violent way toward their seven children.
The statement particularly resonated with Gordon because he is a former domestic-violence prosecutor who believes that if a man is violent with one woman, he’s likely to be violent with all the women in his life, the Web site said.
Robyn made the court statement even though the unhinged actor had left her to be with the younger Russian beauty.
Oksana’s bid to get custody of the tot continued yesterday, however, as LA Department of Children and Family Services workers interviewed her 12-year-old son Alexander Dalton, according to Radar.
Investigators want to know more about her allegations that Gibson struck her and Lucia during the tirade in January. According to Radar, sources say Alexander “saw it all.”
Meanwhile a source told People magazine that the tapes that captured Gibson’s rants were supposed to be kept a secret under a contract that he and Grigorieva signed in LA two months ago.
But Grigorieva began to regret the deal, according to the mag.
“By going on the offensive, she opened Pandora’s Box by disregarding the settlement and taking the case to court, which made the case public,” the source said.
