TMZ has learned San Diego Chargers star Antonio Cromartie is being investigated for assault with a deadly weapon over a bruising incident in a San Diego bar last night.
According to law enforcement sources, Cromartie -- a Pro-Bowl defensive back -- was out celebrating the Chargers win at a local San Diego bar when somebody threw a champagne bottle which hit a bystander in the head.
Witnesses claim there was champagne being sprayed back and forth between Cromartie's party and other bar patrons -- until the mood changed and someone threw a bottle.
We're told the bystander had a cut on his head -- but no ambulance was called to the scene.
Law enforcement sources tell us 25-year-old Cromartie was identified as the bottle-thrower by at least one person -- but there are conflicting stories from other witnesses.
Cromartie was essential in the Chargers' 32-3 win over the Denver Broncos yesterday, raking in a key interception in the second half.
UPDATE: Cromartie's agent, Gary Wichard, seems to be throwing Antonio's teammates under the bus, telling TMZ, "This is absolutely not a story. Antonio didn't throw the bottle. There were actually three other players involved. Antonio is at a complex working out. Again, this is not a story."
UPDATE #2: After we posted Wichard's statement, his story changed. Here is what he's telling us now: "he was there with 2 other players ... no one was involved in the fight."
Story developing...

In an attempt to promote his late night talk show, Jimmy Fallon wore some sort of solar paneled spandex superhero getup at Comic Con in San Diego this weekend.

The 34-year-old is doing whatever he can to get it up -- his ratings that is.

A battle is raging inside the school district where Carrie Prejean learned all she knows -- and it's all over whether to honor Miss Cali with her very own special day.
We're told a member of the Vista Unified School District in San Diego is campaigning to get a green light from the board to make June 1st "Carrie Prejean Day" -- but he's running into some serious opposition.
Opponents think it's a thinly veiled attempt to promote the anti-gay marriage agenda. Supporters say baloney -- that she should be honored because she was a good student and a strong female role model ... and she looks really good without a bra.
The battle over the "biblically correct" beauty queen is set for tomorrow night at Foothill Oak Elementary.
Fun fact: June 1st is National Day Against Homophobia in Canada.

Rande Gerber, the business mogul husband of Cindy Crawford, is being sued for sexual harassment by a pair of former female employees.
According to a lawsuit filed in March in San Diego County Superior Court, two former waitresses claim they were fired from a restaurant owned by Gerber's company for refusing to give in to the advances of Gerber and other managers where they worked.
On one occasion in 2008, while working at the Moonstone Lounge located in the Hard Rock Hotel in San Diego, one of the women claims Gerber attempted to kiss her three times during the night, then "put his hand up [her] dress in between her legs in an attempt to fondle her crotch."
The women are suing for unspecified damages.
Gerber's reps tell us, "These allegations were previously investigated and shown to be baseless," adding, "This lawsuit has no merit."
He's married to Cindy Crawford, for cryin' out loud ...

TMZ spies were out in force last night for Britney's comeback debut, and it was overheard during the wait for Brit to appear, that many were hoping she wouldn't actually sing -- but lip-sync!
Fans who paid a ridiculous amount of cash for tickets wanted their money's worth -- our spy, who paid $300, said he was ecstatic that Spears did what she does best -- dance -- but he was happier she didn't sing!
"Real fans of Britney know what they're getting, a hot performance, not a singer," said our informant. He also said that although there were definitely a few fans who weren't satisfied with the show, the majority of the crowd LOVED every minute ... all 15 of them!
