Yung Bleu was arrested on an assault and battery charge after he body slammed a woman during a child custody dispute.
Bleu, who was born Jeremy Biddle, was arrested on Oct. 15 in Hall County, Georgia and released on a $2,400 bond, TMZ reported.
Bleu, 29, was taken into custody after police responded to a 911 call from a home in Flowery Branch, Ga.
According to a statement from the Hall County Sheriff’s Office, “The victim told the responding deputy she and Biddle had been in a custody dispute over a 10-year-old child. Biddle had shown up at her residence unannounced and said he was taking the child to his house. An argument ensued and the victim said Biddle picked her up and threw her to the ground, injuring her right arm and hip.”
