The mother of tennis star Anna Kournikova has been charged with child neglect after police say she left her young son home alone, TMZ reported.

Alla Kournikova, 46, was arrested Tuesday in Palm Beach after someone passing by her home noticed her 5-year-old son outside alone and called police.

The boy told police he jumped out a second-storey window, but was not seriously injured.

Police said Alla Kournikova locked the home with a deadbolt and officers had to get inside through the second-storey window.

She was released from the Palm Beach County Jail after posting US$3,000 in bail.

After being considered a fugitive by the U.S. government since 1978, Roman Polanski has been detained in Zurich on charges of unlawful sexual intercourse with a 13-year-old girl, 31 years later. The Polish born Polanski, a holocaust survivor, has lived for the past three decades in France, where his career has continued to flourish. The Chinatown and Rosemary’s Baby director won an Oscar in absentia for The Pianist in 2002 and was in Zurich to receive a lifetime achievement award when he was detained by Swiss police at the request of U.S. authorities. Festival organizers said Polanski’s detention had caused “shock and dismay,” but that they would go ahead with Sunday’s planned retrospective of the director’s work.

The 76-year-old director recently sought dismissal of his case on grounds of misconduct by the now-deceased judge who had arranged a plea bargain and then reneged on it .Polanski, who maintained the girl was sexually experienced and had consented, spent 42 days in prison undergoing psychiatric tests but fled the country before being sentenced. His U.S. visa has since been withdrawn.

Actor Randy Quaid and his wife Evi were arrested yesterday in Texas on burglary, defrauding an innkeeper and conspiracy charges after they failed to pay the San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara the thousands of dollars they owed after an extended stay. This isn’t the first time the pair has been accused of the dine-and-dash approach to swanky hotels, either — TMZ says they also stiffed Bel Air Hotel in L.A., among other places. Presidio County Sheriff’s deputies said:

Randy assaulted [the police] both physically and verbally and resisted arrest, but [we] will not file charges. The Sheriff’s office is in touch with officials in Santa Barbara County, who want Randy and Evi extradited.

When asked for a statement, Randy reportedly said, “Well, I got laid off when they closed that asbestos factory, and wouldn’t you know it, the army cuts my disability pension because they said that the plate in my head wasn’t big enough. Well, I didn’t want to ask you, you know, but could you maybe spare a little extra cash?” Clark W. Griswold was unavailable for comment.
