Rod Stewart, 74, and his 39-year-old son Sean Stewart are facing simple battery charges after they allegedly beat up a security guard at a kids party at The Breakers in Palm Beach on New Yearâs Eve. The Sun-Sentinel reports that the Stewart party was trying to gain entrance to the popular resort during a private event when the scuffle occurred. Witnesses told police that the younger Stewart got ânose-to-noseâ with the guard before holding him back so his father could punch him in his âleft rib cage area,â according to the police report. Both men are required to appear in court on Feb. 5.
