New information is coming out about the arrest of Charlie Sheen yesterday morning in Aspen for assault against his wife Brooke Mueller ...

Authorities apparently gave Sheen and Mueller blood alcohol tests and the wifey clocked in at .14, while Charlie blew a .04 -- half the legal limit for DUI in California.

Just what where these two doing, drinking at 8:30 in the morning? Brooke was bitch slapping her man, it seems!

Sheen told cops his wife was physically attacking him and Mueller reportedly admitted to police she was drunk at the time she made the 911 call.

Charlie's hired Colorado attorney Richard Cummins and is due in court February 8.
