On Nov. 12, "NCIS" star Pauley Perrette was attacked and almost killed by a homeless man outside of her Hollywood home, as HNGN previously reported. She revealed the shocking news in a Twitter post letting her followers know that a "very psychotic homeless man" had punched her several times while telling her he was going to kill her. The police eventually found him and charged him with a felony assault, and his full charges have now officially been released.

Perrette believed her attacker's name was William, as that is what he told her, but it turns out his name is David Merck. The 45-year-old homeless man was charged with one felony count of making a criminal threat and one count of false imprisonment by violence, according to TMZ. After not only assaulting her but also threating to take her life multiple times, Merck now faces up to four years in prison if convicted, and his bail was set at $60,000.

Following the hard-to-read Twitter post detailing her tragic experience, Perrette revealed that she was really shaken up by the whole thing. "I've been crying all night, clearly," she told "Entertainment Tonight" the day after the incident. "He told me he was going to kill me several times, and I absolutely believed him. I prayed as hard as I've ever prayed for anything in my life, and I didn't do anything. I thought, anything I do would escalate the situation - I couldn't overcome him, he was stronger than me."

Once Perrette was safe and able to call the cops, she drew a sketch of the man who had assaulted her. "I took a pen and I immediately, in shock, like drew a picture of the guy, 'cause I didn't have a camera," she explained. "The guy looks exactly like the thing that I drew."

The LAPD later found Merck and arrested him at a 7-Eleven in Hollywood on felony battery charges.
