*Jonathan Majors filed a domestic violence complaint against his ex-girlfriend who is at the center of the actor’s assault case in New York City.
The “Creed III” star was arrested on March 25 after his ex Grace Jabbari called the police to allege that he violently attacked her during an argument. Majors was charged with two counts of assault in the third degree, aggravated harassment, and attempted assault. His lawyer, Priya Chaudhry, told Newsweek that her client was actually “the victim,” as police at two NYPD precincts found probable cause to arrest Jabbari.
Chaudhry said that Majors met with investigators last week “to present them with evidence of what really happened on that night.”
“Within hours of viewing the evidence, and conducting their own thorough investigation, the NYPD found probable cause to arrest Grace Jabbari for assaulting Jonathan Majors,” Chaudhry added.
Majors admitted to physically grabbing Jabbari “to pull her back into the car they were riding inside during the altercation, alleging she “grabbed for his face, coat, and phone,” as the incident spilled onto the street, according to the incident report obtained by Insider,” People writes.
“I was worried she would be hurt by traffic. So I physically picked her up and put her in the car,” the incident report reads.
Majors claims he suffered minor injuries during the incident. He also alleges that Jabbari stole his iPhone after the assault and spent thousands on his credit card, Insider reports.
Majors allegedly told police that Jabbari attacked him in past incidents, but he did not file reports.
“Within a few weeks of these false allegations, we provided the District Attorney with evidence of Mr. Majors’ innocence. Last week, we delivered additional compelling evidence to the District Attorney,” Chaudhry said in a statement.
“Following this, we strongly requested the District Attorney dismiss all charges against Mr. Majors immediately… While we are hopeful that the District Attorney is reviewing these materials in good faith and will do the right thing soon, to accelerate our case, we’ve requested a trial date ASAP,” she added.
Majors’ trial in NYC is scheduled for August 3.
