Flava, formally known as William Jonathan Drayton Jr., 62, was “arrested on a misdemeanor charge of domestic battery on Oct. 5 by the Henderson PD,” TMZ<\/a> revealed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police responded to a call for a domestic disturbance, and when they arrived the hype man “was placed into custody and taken to the Henderson Detention Center.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the police report obtained by the outlet, “Flav allegedly poked his finger on the alleged victim’s nose, grabbed her, threw her down, and grabbed a phone out her hand.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The City Attorney has since confirmed that Flava Flav was “charged with misdemeanor battery constituting domestic violence.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The New York<\/a> native’s attorney, David Chesnoff, claimed that any sort of rebuttal will be made only in the courtroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“In alleged domestic violence cases, there are often 2 sides to the story and we will explain our side in the courtroom and not in the media,” he told TMZ.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
