According to some sources, the couple was previously detained by private security before official authorities arrived at the scene. However, TMZ also reported that neither Skai Jackson nor the boyfriend – of whom we know very little – confirmed any type of assault, but on the contrary, denied everything.
Jackson even said that the couple was supposedly engaged and expecting a baby together.
This case has been reviewed and investigated by the L.A. County District Attorney’s Office, who will give the final resolution and determine if and how charges will be filed.
The authorities did not care about the engagement and the alleged pregnancy, because they were still shown evidence of the violence exercised by the 22-year-old actress and with evidence in hand, Skai J. was arrested and released after a few hours.
