Actor Jonathan Majors, best known for his roles in "The Last Black Man in San Francisco" and the recent HBO series "Lovecraft Country," was arrested on Wednesday on charges of strangulation, assault, and harassment.
According to police reports, the incident took place in Manhattan. The victim has not been named by authorities but is said to have suffered minor injuries.
Majors was taken into custody following the altercation but was later released after posting bail. His representatives have yet to comment on the situation.
This is not the first time that Majors has had a run-in with law enforcement. In 2019, he was arrested for driving under the influence in California.
Fans of Majors expressed their disappointment upon hearing this news via social media platforms. Many were shocked as they had only seen him portray positive roles on screen.
The entertainment industry has been rocked by several high-profile incidents involving actors being accused of sexual harassment or assault over the past few years. This latest development serves as a reminder that nobody is above the law and that violence against others will not be tolerated.
As always, we urge all victims of abuse or violence to seek help from local authorities or support groups who can offer assistance during difficult times.
