Overview
- Atlanta police arrested Riza Simpson on Jan. 16 on a warrant and charged her with simple assault — family violence and obstruction.
- According to the police report, Hounsou alleged Simpson punched him in the face with a closed fist, leaving his eye red and swollen after recent eye surgery.
- Officers recorded that the couple's children were upstairs during the incident, and later reported hearing children crying during Simpson's arrest.
- Facility records show Simpson was booked at the Atlanta City Detention Center, posted a $500 bond, and was transferred to Fulton County custody, with a court appearance set for Jan. 21 at 9 a.m.
- The report notes the obstruction count stems from allegedly providing false information and refusing lawful commands, and police advised Hounsou on protective-order and eviction options.
