Zac Efron No 911 Call After Jaw Break
Zac Efron broke his jaw and gashed his face in what people say was a violent fall in his house after slipping in a puddle of water ... yet there was NO 911 call.
TMZ checked with law enforcement sources and no one called 911 to report any incident on Sunday -- when the injury occurred. We checked the days prior to and after Sunday as well -- No 911 call.
The mishap is puzzling for sure. Zac has been in rehab twice this year for cocaine abuse. He's also had problems with Molly and we're told staying sober has been a struggle.
It's unclear how Zac made his way to the ER ... but given that the injury was so severe his mouth had to be wired shut ... it's bizarre it didn't warrant a 911 emergency.

The guy who played Jim McCoy on the hit History Channel mini-series "Hatfields & McCoys" claims he was bucked off a horse on the set and suffered serious injuries back in 2011 -- and now he's suing, TMZ has learned.

The result -- Thomas claims his horse became uncontrollable during the filming of a scene, bolted, and "subsequently threw [him] into a tree."
McKay claims he suffered serious and permanent injuries -- which caused "great physical, mental and nervous pain." The exact injuries were not disclosed.
McKay also claims the horses were abused on the set -- which was in Romania.
The 33-year-old actor is suing Hatfield & McCoys Productions, Thinkfactory Media and others for unspecified damages.

Charlie Sheen New Investigation Over Injury to Bob
The L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services has opened a fresh investigation into allegations that someone hurt Bob, one of Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller's twins ... and we've learned Brooke is pointing the finger at Denise Richards.
Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ ... Brooke reported the incident over the weekend, just after Charlie appeared on TMZ Live and railed on her. We've learned Brooke told DCFS ... there was a cut on Bob's back that was deep enough to scab over, and she said it happened on Denise's watch.
As you know ... Denise was the guardian of the twins while Brooke tried to beat her latest bout of drug abuse. Denise threw in the towel yesterday, saying the kids were too violent, and now Brooke's brother Scott is the guardian.
We're told social workers went to Bob's school and determined the cut had been there for more than a week, which means it could have happened while Bob was under Brooke's care. DCFS then interviewed Denise, who said the cut had been there for more than a week.
Our DCFS sources say the timing of Brooke's complaint is suspect because the accusation came on the heels of Charlie attacking her on TMZ Live.
Based on what we know ... this case will be closed soon with no action.

Denise Richards She Gives DCFS Proof ... Brooke Blocks Urgent Therapy for Twins
Denise Richards was armed with an email when she went to the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services -- an email which she apparently believed would expose Brooke Mueller as a terrible parent.
The email -- obtained by TMZ -- was sent by Dr. Jay Gordon, an Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at UCLA Medical School. The email and documents obtained by TMZ make it clear ... Brooke is blocking psychological treatment for Bob and Max.
The email, dated August 23, 2013, reads:
-- "As we have discussed, because of recent events involving the boys' behavior I think that they need urgent evaluation. I am very concerned about their escalating violent actions; The apparent lack of understanding of the consequences and the safety of others is most worrisome. I would like them seen by Dr. Alessia Gottlieb for a complete developmental and behavioral assessment."
TMZ broke the story ... Denise told DCFS that Brooke was blocking the treatment described in the email. As we first reported, Denise said she could no longer care for the twins with such interference by Brooke, given their violent behavior toward animals and people.
