Former rap star Flavor Flav was arrested Wednesday in Las Vegas, Nevada, and charged with assault with a deadly weapon and battery in a case involving his fiancee of eight years, police said.
Police were called to
their house on the city's south side at 3:30 a.m., according to a
domestic battery report issued by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police
Department, which offers the following account of events:
Flav, whose real name is William J. Drayton, 53, was arguing with the woman, Elizabeth Trujillo, 39.
The two had gotten into a
"verbal altercation due to Drayton cheating on Trujillo," it said. The
argument continued in the downstairs bedroom, where "Drayton became
physical."
"Trujillo stated Drayton
grabbed her by the shoulders, stomach and arms, and threw her to the
ground two separate times," it continued, adding that Trujillo said an
earring was ripped out of her ear during the incident.
