Charlie Sheen Cuts $12k Check for Paparazzo''s Funeral

 

Charlie Sheen is covering a huge chunk of the funeral costs for the paparazzo who died while covering Justin Bieber ... cutting a $12,000 check to the photog's family ... TMZ has learned.

We broke the story ... 29-year-old Chris Guerra died after being struck by a car in Los Angeles on New Year's Day while taking pictures of Bieber's car. We're told Guerra will be laid to rest in a private service set for tomorrow

Turns out, Charlie is tight with a former photog who was friends with Guerra ... and got word that the family was trying to raise money to cover the costs. So Charlie, being Charlie, sprung into action and grabbed his checkbook.

We contacted Sheen about the situation, and the actor gave us the following statement: "A tragic incident like this erases the line between the photographer and the subject. It's an unforgiving moment that begs us all to be human and work as one to prevent this in the future."

He continues, "As parents, we are all not supposed to bury our children. My deepest condolences to the families involved."

Just  a thought :
The guy is so rich it is like he is flipping a quarter to a bum, but it is still cool that he cares. I think the truth sets you free and since he has stood for the truth in exposing 9/11 and in his problems with Two and a Half Men, he has the integrity to care about other people as well.

For all of his disgusting sleaziness, he still has some good qualities and a good heart. He keeps doing these selfless acts of kindness, and that makes him a better person.
