Los Angeles - A sheriff's official says Mel Gibson has met with detectives to discuss his claims that his ex-girlfriend attempted to extort money from him.
Los Angeles County sheriff's spokesperson Steve Whitmore says the interview occurred on Sunday. He says detectives only spoke to the Academy Award-winner about his claims against ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva, a 40-year-old Russian singer.
The sheriff's department is also investigating claims by Grigorieva that Gibson abused her during a January confrontation.
Neither has been arrested and no charges have been filed.
Gibson's interview was first reported on Tuesday by celebrity website.
