Overview
- LAPD says officers responded around 10:40 a.m. Monday to an alleged battery, and Cruz was taken into custody via a private person's arrest.
- County booking records show he was booked on a misdemeanor about 1:30 p.m. and released on his own recognizance roughly two hours later, with a court date set for Oct. 1.
- Accounts of the encounter differ on who was sprayed and whether it was intentional, with initial reports mentioning a neighbor's daughter or a group of women.
- Cruz's agent denies intentional spraying and states three unknown women parked closely, filmed him, and refused to move while he washed his car.
- Any prosecution would go through the Los Angeles City Attorney, and no misdemeanor charge had been filed as of the latest reports.
