Sean Avery To Have Police Battery Charges Dropped

Hockey rock star Sean Avery allegedly shoved a cop and slammed the door in his face when the fuzz showed up to his house on a noise complaint.

But, that’s just not true so no charges will be filed against him.

“No criminal charges of any kind will be filed against Sean Avery stemming from his August 5 arrest for battery on a police officer.”

According to sources, police don’t believe it’s appropriate to charge Avery — and agree the matter would be best handled by an informal meeting with the L.A. City Attorney, who’s expected to officially close the case without prosecution.

In fact, nobody was shoved at all — according to witnesses — and the cop filed the battery report after his foot got caught in the door. (Really? You’re going to report that?)

We’re glad nothing is going to be wrongly filed here, and regardless of if Avery did it or not we hope he keeps the shoving for the ice!
