In a disturbing turn of events, Weston Cage, son of renowned actor Nicolas Cage, has been accused of assaulting his mother, Christina Fulton. The incident reportedly took place at Fulton's Los Angeles home on April 28. Sources close to the family revealed that a heated argument quickly escalated into a physical altercation between the mother and son.

Law enforcement officials were called to Fulton's residence to respond to the battery report, but by the time they arrived, Weston, 33, had already left the scene. Fulton, 56, was found with visible injuries, including a black eye and multiple facial bruises. Although she did not require hospitalization, the severity of her injuries is a cause for concern.

Authorities are now determining whether the case will be classified as a felony battery. As of now, no arrests have been made in connection with the incident. It is unclear what prompted the altercation between Weston and Fulton.

Sources close to Fulton have stated that she had invited her son over to console him during what they described as an "emotional moment." These sources claim that Fulton vehemently denies any physical altercation taking place and has requested privacy during this difficult time.

Photographs obtained by TMZ show Fulton with noticeable bruises on her face, including a prominent black eye. Fading yellow marks on her cheeks and forehead suggest that the alleged altercation had taken a toll on her physical well-being.

Representatives for both Fulton and Nicolas Cage, Weston's father, were not immediately available for comment. The family has recently been embroiled in legal battles, as Fulton and Weston have filed separate lawsuits against Weston's estranged wife, Hila Arounian. The lawsuits allege embezzlement of $100,000 and the filing of a fraudulent restraining order to prevent Fulton and Nicolas from seeing Weston's twin daughters.

In their respective lawsuits, Fulton and Weston accuse Arounian of emotional abuse and manipulation, which allegedly led to Weston isolating himself from his family. Weston also claims that Arounian took advantage of him while he was recovering from mental health issues. Arounian declined to comment on the allegations at the time.

As the investigation into the battery incident continues, the public waits for further updates on this distressing situation involving the Cage family.
