Anytime you use physical force on someone, even if you are legally in the right, you risk being injured or arrested. Drunks can exhibit great strength. Why not call the police and let them handle it.

Mr. Stone is correct.

Better still, don't allow drunks into your house in the first place and don't serve alcohol to people who can't control their drinking.

It sounds like this is a recurring problem. Stop it before it starts.
