L.A. City Attorney Declines Case Against Raymond Cruz in Alleged Hose-Spraying Incident

The decision follows a Sept. 8 private-person arrest in Silver Lake after a reported dispute during a car wash.

Overview

  • A City Attorney spokesperson told Entertainment Weekly on Oct. 1 that prosecutors declined to file a misdemeanor battery case after reviewing the matter.
  • Officials provided no additional details, and a representative for Cruz did not immediately comment.
  • LAPD says officers responded around 10:40 a.m. on Sept. 8 to a battery call that resulted in Cruz’s booking for a misdemeanor and his same-day release on his own recognizance.
  • Cruz was taken into custody via a private person’s arrest tied to the encounter outside his Los Angeles home.
  • TMZ reported a woman alleged he sprayed her daughter with water, while Cruz’s agent denied any intentional spraying and called the accusation “outrageous and dangerous.”
