Disney Channel star Skai Jackson was arrested for domestic battery following an alleged fight with her boyfriend.
The actress, 22, was taken into custody on August 9 at Universal Citywalk in Hollywood, California after security guards spotted her in an altercation. The arrest was first reported by TMZ.
Security reportedly detained the couple and called the police after seeing Jackson shove her boyfriend, whose identity is not clear.
Sources told TMZ that the couple denied they physically fought, and claimed they are actually engaged and expecting a baby together.
According to reports, police decided to arrest Jackson and her partner after being shown footage of the alleged altercation.
The security footage allegedly showed the Disney star pushing her partner twice.
Jackson was arrested for misdemeanor domestic battery, and was cited before being released hours later.
Charges were not immediately brought against the former child star, and the incident is under investigation by the LA County District Attorney’s Office.
It is unclear who Jackson’s partner is, and the actress is known to be private about her love life and has not shared images of him to her social media.
Dailymail.com has contacted Jackson’s representatives for comment.
Jackson is best known for her roles on Disney Channel sitcom Jessie and spin-off Bunk’d, both of which ended in 2018.
Last year, she was roasted for the ‘Disney money running out’ after she ordered her fans send her $5 to enter a ‘raffle’ to win a MacBook.
Fans mocked her fundraising efforts, leading Jackson to insist in a follow-up TikTok that she ‘doesn’t need the money’ and is ‘not that serious.’
She joins a growing list of former Disney stars to have brushes with the law.
Among them is former ‘That’s So Raven’ star Orlando Brown, who has been imprisoned several times on charges including domestic violence and burglaries.
Mitchell Musso, who starred in ‘Hannah Montana’, was also arrested last year for public intoxication and theft in Texas.
This is not the first time Jackson has been embroiled in the law, after she previously filed a restraining order against rapper Bhad Bhabie following alleged threats on her life in 2020.
Skai filed the restraining order against the then 16-year-old Danielle in Los Angeles stating at the time that she was afraid to leave home by herself after the rapper had made direct threats towards her.
The actress added that at the time she hadn’t slept well since the threats were made against her and felt Danielle was ‘mentally unstable.’
In the filing, TMZ reported that Skai also included past text messages from the Gucci Flip Flops rapper, in which Bregoli allegedly said she wanted to fight Skai and that she ‘better hide.’
