Los Angeles prosecutors have charged an Australian man in an attack on a security guard outside supermodel Miranda Kerr's home earlier this month.
The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office says 29-year-old Shaun Anthony Haywood was charged with attempted murder, aggravated mayhem and assault with a deadly weapon on Tuesday.
Haywood is accused of entering Kerr's property in Malibu on Oct. 14 and slashing a guard's face with his own knife. The guard shot Haywood three times during the confrontation.

Kerr, an Australian, rose to fame as a model for Victoria's Secret and was married to actor Orlando Bloom.
