Actor from Breaking Bad gets detained following a heated confrontation in a tranquil residential area.
Raymond Cruz Arrested in Los Angeles: Details of the Incident
Raymond Cruz, the acclaimed actor known for his roles in Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, was arrested in Los Angeles on Monday. The arrest occurred after a street dispute in Silverlake, leading to a police matter.
According to reports, the dispute started when Cruz asked a woman to move her car, which was parked behind him, blocking his space. The woman's daughter claimed that Cruz allegedly turned the garden hose on her purposefully. However, no further information about the woman or her daughter was provided.
Cruz was taken into custody on suspicion of misdemeanor battery. He was booked at a local station after the incident, but no formal charges have been filed by the afternoon. The specific details about the misdemeanor battery charge are not specified.
The Los Angeles City Attorney who will be deciding in connection with the incident is Hydee Feldstein Soto. Prosecutors sometimes choose not to press charges and instead arrange an office hearing. Issuing warnings or suggesting anger management classes are ways prosecutors might close a matter.
Before Breaking Bad, Cruz had a long career with roles in shows like The X-Files, Walker Texas Ranger, and NYPD Blue. His big breakthrough was in Training Day in 2001, where he played a ruthless gangster named Sniper. He also appeared in movies such as Clear and Present Danger, The Rock, and Alien Resurrection.
No information about any potential legal representation for Cruz was provided. The Los Angeles City Attorney's office will likely decide how to move forward in the coming days.
