According to papers that were filed with the Los Angeles Superior court on Thursday, Angela Rain Bates, 55, showed up at the actor's home on the evening of July 14th and waited outside until the gate was opened, then ran onto his property.
When she was blocked from the house by Seagal's groundskeeper, she then allegedly threw two rocks through a window and kicked him violently in the leg and shin. Police were called, who found her sitting on top of a rock wall. Bates was arrested on site and booked for felony vandalism.
During her interview with the police, Bates stated her delusional belief that she was married to Seagal's father - who has been dead for two decades - and that she had lived at Seagals' house with his dad for over 20 years and that the property was hers.

While in custody she complained in custody of suffering from sunburn and was treated by a doctor.
