American actor Jonathan Majors’s criminal case has taken a new twist.
Grace Jabbari, the woman who accused the actor of assaulting her, has been arrested for an alleged assault towards Majors.
She was reportedly issued a summons to appear in New York to receive the assault charge.
The details suggest that Jabbari, 30, was arrested on charges of misdemeanor assault with intent to cause physical injury and criminal mischief with intent to damage property.
According to TMZ, Jabbari turned herself into police Wednesday evening for allegedly striking Majors, 34, earlier this year.
Jonathan Majors was arrested on March 25 in Manhattan and is accused of assault and aggravated harassment.
It is alleged that on March 25, he and Jabbari were in a cab from a party, headed to their apartment.
It is said that she saw a text message on Majors’s phone that read, “Wish I was kissing you right now.”
She allegedly took the phone out of his hands to see who sent the message.
Majors then “began grabbing the right side of Ms. Jabbari’s body and prying Ms. Jabbari’s right middle finger off the phone, causing bruising, swelling, and substantial pain.”
The case states that he “then grabbed Ms. Jabbari’s arm and right hand and proceeded to twist her forearm, causing substantial pain to her finger and arm. The defendant then struck Ms. Jabbari’s right ear, causing a laceration to the back of her ear and substantial pain.”
According to Variety magazine, after he retrieved his phone, Majors exited the vehicle and Jabbari attempted to follow the actor. That’s when “the defendant grabbed her, picked her up, and threw her back inside … [and] sustained substantial pain, including a fractured finger, bruising about her body, a laceration behind her right ear, and a bump on her head,” according to the filing.
The trial is slated to begin on November 29.
If convicted, Majors could face up to a year behind bars. BY MPASHO NEWS
