Tommy Lee's Son Brandon Calls Their Alleged Altercation a 'Result of My Father's Alcoholism'

Brandon Lee is claiming that his altercation with Tommy Lee stemmed from his father's alleged alcoholism.

A rep for the 21-year-old model issued a statement to Peopleon Wednesday after Tommy took to Twitter on Tuesday to accuse Brandon of assaulting him during an alleged altercation on Monday night.

"I’m devastated at the events of the last several days that have been a result of my father’s alcoholism," Brandon's statement read. "I’ve worked tirelessly organizing an intervention and it’s incredibly upsetting that it never came to fruition. I wanted my dad's hopeful sobriety and recovery to be a private family matter but, as a result of his accusations on social media, I feel forced to speak out."

"I have and will continue to cooperate with law enforcement as needed," he continued. "I love my father and just want to see him sober, happy and healthy."

Shortly after the statement was published, Tommy took to Twitter to dismiss his son's statement and deny that an intervention was ever in the works.

"LMAAAO!!!! I’m happier than I’ve been in my entire life. I have a few drinks here & there because I'’m f**kin retired and enjoying my life," Lee tweeted. "I worked 30+ f**kin years I deserve it. You didn't arrange any intervention, you barely spoke to me while u were here. Just coverin ur a**!!"

"See ya later social media! Can’t read anymore liesss," the Motley Crue drummer tweeted after.
