He was released without bail pending an appearance in court in New Hampshire.
TMZ said it obtained video that reportedly showed the “We Are Chaos” hitmaker putting his face right into the camera lens and then releasing a huge wad of spit at the camera. It can be seen here.
The victim, a videographer, was in the venue’s stage pit area at the time of the alleged assault.
Each of the misdemeanor charges carries a potential of jail time for less than a year and a $2,000 fine if convicted, the AP noted.
Manson has also been accused of sexual assault from multiple women in Los Angeles, according to the AP. However, he has yet to be charged for any of those alleged crimes and denies the accusations.
