Steven Seagal Sued For Driving Tank Into Man's House

By Michael Lopez

The second we heard that Steven Seagal was hanging with Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio, we knew there'd be trouble. Arpaio has become notorious for his anti-immigration stance and recently took Seagal for a tank ride through a Mexican-American man's house!

Granted, Jesus Llovera wasn't getting arrested because he was undocumented. Arpaio claimed that he was running an underground cock fighting ring. Here's the kicker though. In order to nab Llovera, Steven and company drove the tank through his home, killing an innocent puppy.

Ironically, Seagal had gone on Arizona radio a few days earlier to speak out against animal cruelty.

"Animal cruelty is one of my pet peeves," he said.

Jesus has decided to sue the Machete star for $25,000 in damages and is asking for a written apology. Authorities, meanwhile, are disputing the details and claim that the tank invasion was justified.

When asked why he thought Arpaio organized the tank raid, Llovera's attorney responded,

"To make good TV for Steven Seagal."

Do you think Joe Arpaio's tank tactics went too far? Sound off in the comments or @MTV3.
