Kiefer Sutherland faces a civil lawsuit filed by an Uber driver in which the driver alleges that Sutherland assaulted him and threatened to kill him. The claim describes an incident that the driver says occurred after Sutherland was intoxicated, and includes allegations that the driver was punched repeatedly. The lawsuit also links the alleged confrontation to Sutherland’s arrest in Los Angeles in January, according to the reporting. In the accounts provided, the driver is seeking legal recourse over the confrontation, while no details about Sutherland’s response to the allegations are included in the summaries. The reports focus on the driver’s account and the filing of the suit, rather than confirming the underlying criminal allegations through trial outcomes. As presented, the matter is at the stage of a lawsuit, meaning the claims have not been resolved by a court. The reports do not provide additional corroborating testimony or separate investigative findings within the provided text.
