Fox News 11 broke the story that Ronnie was arrested in Los Angeles after allegedly chasing Jen with a knife. The site also shared video footage from the incident where the 33-year-old is handcuffed and being placed in the back of an ambulance.
According to Us Weekly, he has been charged with kidnapping and his bail is set at $100,000.
Los Angeles Police Department told RadarOnline.com exclusively on Friday morning that "officers responded to a battery in progress at the location they were staying at at around 2:40 a.m. Suspect and victim were involved in some kind of physical altercation. When officers on location, the suspect was uncooperative. Officers had to use a taser so there was minor use of force that occurred."
At the time, the LAPD confirmed that Ronnie "was being arrested for felony domestic violence" and that "a child at the location was not harmed." The child was not identified.
