British prosecutors have charged embattled actor Kevin Spacey with four counts of sexually assaulting three men in the U.K. The Crown Prosecution Service said Thursday that the charges against the award-winning actor "follow a review of evidence gathered by the Metropolitan Police." Spacey, 62, was also charged with "causing a person to engage in penetrative sexual activity without consent," the agency said.
The alleged incidents took place in London between March 2005 and August 2008, and one in western England in April 2013.The alleged victims are now in their 30s and 40s.
