Actor JEREMY LONDON's estranged wife MELISSA CUNNINGHAM has taken out a restraining order against the star - accusing him of lashing out at her in violent, drug-fuelled attacks.
A Los Angeles Superior Court judge has ordered the former 7th Heaven star to stay at least 100 yards (91 meters) away from Melissa, 37, and her home, reports the National Enquirer.
According to court documents filed last month (Aug08), Cunningham alleges: "I am afraid for my safety and the safety of our son", and reportedly recounts an incident when London broke her nose in a violent brawl. She adds that he "jumped up and knocked me around. He kicked me in the stomach with our son in my arms."
The 35-year-old actor was slapped with a restraining order in 2004 after he was arrested for allegedly throwing his wife out of his car at the side of a California freeway.
A source adds of the star's alleged drug-fuelled behaviour: "Jeremy is stable when he's not high, but when he goes off on one of his drug and alcohol binges, he turns into a violent madman."
The couple married in September 2006 and Cunningham is reportedly asking for sole custody of their 19-month-old son, Lyrik.
Their spokespersons have each declined to comment on the allegations.
