Arrests

Reality TV star Martell Holt is in police custody in Alabama, where he's been arrested on a misdemeanor domestic violence charge.

Martell, famous for starring in OWN's "Love & Marriage: Huntsville," was busted Tuesday afternoon in Madison County for third-degree domestic violence for allegedly sending harassing communications ... according to online records.

The Huntsville Police Department, the arresting agency, tells TMZ ... this is a misdemeanor arrest from a warrant.

In addition to starring in 57 episodes on "Love & Marriage: Huntsville," Martell is also known for dating 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' star Shereé Whitfield.

Martell and Sheree had a thing back in 2022 after meeting through mutual friends but they're no longer together, breaking up last summer.

Martell's born and raised in Huntsville ... staying home to go to college at Alabama A&M University, graduating in 2008 before becoming an entrepreneur.

No further details are available at this time ... but it's worth noting Martell is divorced with five children.

Former NFL star Muhammad Wilkerson was arrested again last week ... after cops say he drove drunk with a loaded gun tucked beneath his car seat.

According to court documents, obtained by TMZ Sports, Wilkerson was initially pulled over by police in Morris County, New Jersey back on Dec. 22 at 6:41 AM.

During the stop, cops suspected he was under the influence ... saying a strong odor of alcohol was emanating from the former New York Jets pass rusher's ride.

In the docs, cops say at one point during questioning, Wilkerson told them he was coming from a New York City club ... and a short time later, they say he failed field sobriety tests.

Wilkerson was placed under arrest -- and afterward, cops said during a search of his vehicle they not only found an open bottle of Don Julio tequila ... but also an FN 509 Tactical Handgun with 11 hollow point bullets inside of it.

Police said Wilkerson told them the firearm was purchased in Florida -- but he did not provide them proper documentation.

Court records show Wilkerson has since been tagged with a bevy of charges in the case -- including operating a vehicle while under the influence and unlawful possession of a handgun.

He's due in court for hearings on the matter next month.

This, of course, is not the first time Wilkerson has been accused of drinking and driving ... he was arrested for DWI in 2020 and 2019 as well.

Chance Comanche, an NBA player who's spent the majority of his basketball career in the G League, has been arrested ... after officials say he helped murder a woman -- and then dumped her remains in a desert.

Comanche was thrown behind bars in the case on Friday -- following a lengthy investigation into the disappearance of Marayna Rodgers by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.

According to the LVMPD, two individuals told officers on Dec. 7 that Rodgers had gone missing -- and a short time later, cops say they discovered the woman had scheduled a meeting with Comanche and his 19-year-old girlfriend, Sakari Harnden, on Dec. 5 -- but had not been seen or heard from since.

The LVMPD says early on in the investigation, its detectives "suspected foul play" in the case and sought to arrest both Comanche and Harden for kidnapping.

On Dec. 13, Harnden was booked in Las Vegas ... while Comanche -- who was playing this season for the G League's Stockton Kings -- was taken in by FBI agents in Sacramento two days later.

However, the LVMPD says following the arrests, officers were able to gather more information in the case and discovered Rodgers' remains in a desert area in Henderson, Nevada.

LVMPD detectives say they believe both Comanche and Harnden were responsible for her death -- and now, they say the two will be facing murder charges.

Comanche, a 27-year-old, 6-foot-10 center, first joined the G League in 2017 after going undrafted out of the University of Arizona ... and after spending time with multiple teams -- including the Stockton Kings -- he eventually made his debut in the NBA for the Portland Trailblazers last season.

This year, he rejoined the Stockton squad ... though he was cut following his arrest on Friday.

Tiffany Haddish got up in front of a crowd to crack jokes less than a day after getting arrested for DUI -- and when she was asked about it point blank, she leaned on comedy.

As we reported ... TH was scheduled to perform at the Laugh Factory in Long Beach Friday -- this after a set she'd done the previous night in L.A., before getting busted by Beverly Hills cops the following morning -- and TMZ obtained audio from part of that Long Beach show.

Take a listen to how Tiffany responded when an audience member asked about what happened "last night" ... obviously referring to her getting led away in handcuffs Friday AM.

Tiffany doesn't really cop to anything -- including the alleged DUI -- but she does say her prayers for a man in uniform were certainly answered ... something the crowd ate up. In other words, she rolled with it and made the whole thing into a well-delivered punchline.

Like we told you ... Tiffany left her Long Beach gig in the backseat of an SUV Friday evening, and it looks like she had some friendly company with her. What's interesting is that earlier in the day, she was in jail after getting taken in and booked earlier that same morning.

Tiffany is alleged to have been found asleep at the wheel in Bev Hills -- and cops say they found probable cause to take her in on suspicion of DUI ... and her arrest is on video.

Outside of this set, Tiffany hasn't talked about the DUI arrest publicly.

Tiffany Haddish se paró frente a una multitud apenas unas horas después de ser arrestada por conducir bajo los efectos del alcohol (DUI), y cuando se le preguntó directamente por eso se apoyó en la comedia.

Como informamos, estaba programado que Tiffany Haddish actuara en Laugh Factory en Long Beach el viernes, esto es al día siguiente del show que había hecho la noche anterior en Los Ángeles y, apenas unas horas antes de ser arrestada por la policía de Beverly Hills. Y TMZ obtuvo el audio de parte de su rutina.

Escucha cómo Tiffany responde cuando el público le pregunta por lo que sucedió "anoche", obviamente refiriéndose al incidente que la llevó a ser esposada el viernes por la mañana.

Tiffany realmente no dice nada, incluyendo el supuesto cargo por DUI, pero sí dice que sus oraciones por un hombre de uniforme fueron ciertamente respondidas, algo que a la multitud le gustó. En otras palabras, hizo de todo el asunto un chiste bien entregado.

Como les contamos, Tiffany se fue de su concierto en Long Beach en el asiento trasero de un SUV y parece que estaba en compañía de un amigo. Lo que es interesante es que apenas unas horas antes en el día, estuvo tras las rejas después de haber sido detenida.

Supuestamente, Tiffany se encontraba dormida sobre el volante cuando la encontraron en Beverly Hills, y los policías dicen que estimaron como causa probable la conducción bajo los efectos del alcohol. Pueden ver su detención en este video.

Nick Hogan's fresh DUI arrest is opening some old wounds for the family of the man who was severely injured in the guy's 2007 crash -- and they think Nick hasn't learned his lesson.

TMZ talked to John Graziano's mother, Debra ... who says she isn't surprised over Nick's latest bust -- telling us he appears to have been as careless now as he was almost 20 years ago when he got into another car wreck as a teen -- which changed her son's life forever.

While it remains to be seen if Nick will be formally charged in this new case ... Debra says she believes his past incident with John -- who suffered severe brain damage in '07, riding passenger alongside Nick at the time -- should be factored into whatever happens here.

To Debra, the fact Nick got popped again all these years later shows a "total lack of respect for what (he) did to another person’s life and you’re still driving reckless."

She adds, "I can only pray that at some point in his life, while he still has the chance, that he turns his life around. Until then I hope no one else gets hurt." Debra goes on to say that the '07 accident and the saga that followed continues to take its toll on her/her loved ones.

Debra says, "I grieve the virtual loss of my son on a daily basis. I thank God daily that at least I have John here with us at home." She says while John has lost most of his ability to function normally, she's grateful he's alive and surrounded by people who care about him.

Dozens of pro-Palestine protesters descended onto a very busy bridge in Northern California -- and at the worst time too ... as people were trying to get to work!

Countless demonstrators blocked off traffic and completely halted activity on the upper deck of San Francisco's Bay Bridge -- and they made sure to let everyone know they weren't going anywhere ... with multiple people chaining themselves to one another/to their cars.

Of course, they had megaphones and signage with them ... all of which called for a ceasefire between Palestine and Israel, while calling on a pause of U.S. aid to Israel specifically.

Some of the more theatrical protesters even laid out on the ground and threw white sheets over themselves ... as a way to reenact/recreate the people being killed in the Middle East. It certainly made a statement -- but it's hard to tell how effective this was, 'cause there were A LOT of angry commuters trying to get in and out of the area for work in the morning.

Not only was traffic backed up to high heaven ... but cops eventually landed on the scene and tried to clear the road, which ultimately ended in a ton of arrests (upwards of 50 or so).

Tow trucks were also brought in to clear the protesters' cars that were completely cutting off lanes -- which was necessary seeing how some of the protesters chucked their keys.

In the end ... the bridge was finally cleared, but it took a long time and a lot of resources.

Decenas de manifestantes pro-Palestina descendieron sobre un puente muy concurrido en el norte de California, y en el momento más inoportuno también, ¡justo cuando la gente estaba intentando llegar al trabajo!

Innumerables manifestantes bloquearon el tráfico y detuvieron por completo la actividad en uno de los segmentos del puente de San Francisco, y se aseguraron de decirles que no iban a ir a ninguna parte, ya que varias personas se encadenaron entre sí y a sus carros.

Por supuesto, tenían megáfonos y carteles que pedían un alto al fuego entre Palestina e Israel, y una pausa en la ayuda que Estados Unidos da a Israel específicamente.

Algunos de los manifestantes más teatrales incluso se tumbaron en el suelo y se cubrieron con sábanas blancas para recrear a las personas asesinadas en Medio Oriente. Ciertamente hicieron una declaración, pero es difícil saber qué tan efectiva fue, porque un montón de personas se enojaron mientras intentaban salir y entrar de la zona para llegar al trabajo.

La policía finalmente aterrizó en la escena y trató de despejar el camino, que en última instancia terminó con una tonelada de arrestos (más de 50 o por ahí).

También llevaron grúas para despejar los carros de los manifestantes que estaban completamente cortando los carriles, y que incluso arrojaron sus llaves.

Al final el puente fue despejado, pero tomó mucho tiempo y una gran cantidad de recursos.

Rams starting cornerback Derion Kendrick was arrested in Los Angeles on Monday ... less than 12 hours after he helped his team beat the Arizona Cardinals.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Sports ... the 23-year-old was pulled over early in the morning for a traffic violation -- and we're told during the stop, police found a gun and marijuana in his car.

Jail records show Kendrick was then booked at 2:14 AM PT on a felony charge of carrying a concealed weapon ... and as of 2:30 PM PT on Monday, he remained in custody.

Further details surrounding the arrest were not made immediately available. We've reached out to the Rams for comment, but so far, no word back yet.

Kendrick -- who was drafted by LA in 2022 -- played nearly every defensive down for the Rams just hours before his arrest ... logging two tackles in their 26-9 win at SoFi Stadium.

12:45 AM PT -- De acuerdo con un informe del incidente obtenido por TMZ Sports, Antonio Brown fue arrestado el domingo fuera de su casa en Dania Beach, Florida, mientras tomaba un taxi.

Antonio Brown fue arrestado en Florida el fin de semana, pocos días después de que su ex le dijo a TMZ Sports que quería ponerlo tras las rejas por no pagar la manutención de sus hijos.

Según los registros de la cárcel, Brown fue recluido a las 12 AM el domingo en el condado de Broward, Florida, y puesto en libertad poco después.

WPLG informó el lunes que todo derivó de una orden de arresto del Departamento de Policía de Miami que se presentó después de que Brown supuestamente eludió hacer los pagos de manutención infantil a su ex, Wiltrice Jackson.

Jackson nos dijo la semana pasada que la ex estrella de la NFL le debe casi 31.000 dólares.

"Sí, quiero que lo arresten", dijo. "Porque ahora mismo se está burlando del juez, de todo, porque se siente intocable".

12:45 AM PT -- According to an incident report obtained by TMZ Sports, Antonio Brown was arrested Sunday outside of his home in Dania Beach, Fla. while getting into a taxicab.

Antonio Brown was arrested in Florida over the weekend ... just days after his ex told TMZ Sports she wanted him put behind bars over unpaid child support.

According to jail records, Brown was booked at 12 AM on Sunday in Broward County, Fla. ... and released a short time later.

WPLG reported Monday it all stemmed from a Miami-Dade Police Department warrant that was filed after Brown allegedly ducked making child support payments to his ex, Wiltrice Jackson.

Jackson told us last week the former NFL star owes her nearly $31,000.

"I do want him arrested," she said. "Because, right now, he's making a mockery out of the judge, out of everything, because he feels like he's untouchable."

Brown has not played in the NFL since the 2021 season ... though he's found success away from the field making rap music.

Zachery Ty Bryan estuvo en una cárcel de Oregón por tercera vez la semana pasada pero finalmente está libre ahora después de un gran malentendido, según nos han informado.

Un funcionario de la cárcel del condado de Lane nos confirmó que la ex estrella de "Home Improvement" fue liberada de la custodia el domingo, esto después de que fuera arrestado y llevado por las autoridades el jueves. Nos dicen que pagó fianza para salir, pero no está claro de cuanto fue el monto.

Las acusaciones que aparecieron en su última hoja de antecedentes (obtenida por TMZ) fueron impactantes al principio: 2 cargos de asalto de cuarto grado. Pero después de hablar con personas directamente relacionadas con el caso, nos han asegurado que este último arresto NO se trata de un nuevo incidente.

El abogado de Zachery, John J. Kolego, nos dice que su cliente fue arrestado como resultado de una violación técnica de su acuerdo de liberación a principios de este año, cuando fue arrestado por cargos de asalto. Nos dijeron que Zachery olvidó cargar su monitor de tobillo por error... y eso fue todo.

Kolego nos dice que lo llevaron bajo custodia durante una comparecencia en la oficina de la corte previa al juicio y que su arresto no involucró a un juez. Nos dijeron que tampoco involucró ningún consumo excesivo de alcohol, como algunos medios de comunicación han sugerido.

El abogado de Zachery agrega sobre el arresto de julio y el caso subsiguiente: "Zachery espera exonerarse a sí mismo en el juicio".

Recuerda que Zachery aceptó un acuerdo de culpabilidad por su primer caso en 2020 por 2 cargos menores, pero lo arrestaron por segunda vez a principios de este año por cargos muy similares a los de su arresto inicial. Todo parece estar relacionado con una mujer con la que está en una relación y con quien tiene hijos.

En el momento de su primera condena, Zachery le dijo a la prensa que todo había sido exagerado por los medios de comunicación. La segunda vez, su abogado defensor dijo que Zachery merece la presunción de inocencia hasta que se conozcan todos los hechos.

Zachery Ty Bryan found himself in an Oregon jail for a third time this past week -- but he's finally out now ... this after a major misunderstanding, TMZ has learned.

A Lane County Jail official confirmed to us that the former "Home Improvement" star was released from custody Sunday -- this after he was arrested and taken in by the authorities on Thursday. We're told he posted bail to get out ... but it's unclear how much at this point.

The charges that showed up on his latest booking sheet -- obtained by TMZ -- were startling at first ... 2 counts of 4th-degree felony assault ... but after speaking with people directly connected to the case, we've been assured this latest arrest is NOT over a new incident.

Zachery's attorney, John J. Kolego, tells us his client got hauled in as a result of a technical violation of his release agreement from earlier this year ... when he was busted on assault charges. We're told ZTB failed to charge his ankle monitor by mistake ... that's it.

Kolego tells us he got taken into custody during a pre-trial court office appearance, and that his arrest didn't involve a judge. We're told it also didn't involve any binge drinking -- as has been suggested by some media outlets.

Zachery's attorney adds of the July arrest and subsequent case ... "Zachery is looking forward to exonerating himself at trial."

Remember, ZTB copped a plea deal for his 1st case in 2020 on 2 lesser charges -- but he got busted for a 2nd time just earlier this year ... on very similar charges to his initial arrest. It all appears to pertain to a woman he's in a relationship with ... and with whom he has kids.

At the time of his first conviction, Zachery told the press that the whole thing was blown out of proportion by the media. The second time around, his defense attorney said Zachery deserves the presumption of innocence until all the facts come out.

A woman said to be running a special needs dog rescue out of her Arizona home landed in jail after mounting allegations of animal abuse ... resulting in a major confiscation of pups.

April Mclaughlin was arrested Friday evening in Chandler, AZ following a search warrant that was executed at her house by local law enforcement ... which resulted in her being hauled away and booked on 55 counts of animal abuse, 55 counts of animal cruelty and a lone count of vulnerable adult abuse. All of this stems from what they found in this one home.

Multiple agencies were on the ground last night responding to the scene ... including the Arizona Humane Society, which assisted in removing dozens of canines from the property.

There were even hazmat teams deployed to deal with this -- as there was a reported foul odor emanating from the home that could be smelled from the street. Multiple bystanders watched as they removed dog after dog ... many of which were disabled and couldn't walk.

The bust follows weeks of claims from different animal rights orgs and other dog rescues in the area, as well as outside of the state ... with a key handful of women beating the drum on social media trying to raise awareness about what they alleged was going on here.

Essentially, they claimed this woman had gone around taking in special needs dogs from other dog rescues that didn't have the resources to accommodate them -- bringing them to a rescue called the Special Needs Animal Welfare League ... which these accusers allege is a total front, and that it simply existed as her own house as opposed to a legit facility.

Instead of providing them proper care, however ... these other orgs assert Mclaughlin treated them terribly -- allegedly removing the doggy wheelchairs of several of the pooches under her watch, and allegedly leaving them malnourished -- among other horrible conditions. Some of the court docs obtained by local outlets appear to back at least some of this up -- detailing what officers say they found inside, including several dead dogs in the freezer.

Here's another twist ... some outlets report that Mclaughlin had used multiple aliases to do what she's been alleged to have carried out. Obviously, unraveling this case will take time.

Unclear if AM's still in custody or not -- she's said to have been taken to Maricopa County Jail on $2,500 cash-only bond. Some reports have her on record as denying wrongdoing.

Una mujer parece haber quedado inconsciente después de que alguien le arrojara un neumático suelto durante una pelea absolutamente loca entre policías y ciudadanos en Gales, y todo quedó registrado en video.

La violencia del clip es bastante brutal. Este muestra un grupo de personas, no demasiado grande, luchando directamente con un puñado de policías en las calles de Wrexham, específicamente, en el pueblo de Rhosllanerchrugog.

Se ve a los policías tratando de luchar contra un hombre en un barrio residencial, con un montón de gente (presumiblemente vecinos) mirando, incluyendo muchos niños. Algunos de los transeúntes adultos también parecen perderse entre el grupo. Lo que es seguro, es que es un completo caos.

Al final, pareciera que la policía piensa que está rodeada de ciudadanos hostiles y saca sus porras, les piden que retrocedan y los amenazan con golpearlos. Un oficial incluso despliega su spray de pimienta mientras los otros policías siguen tratando con alguien en el suelo.

Es entonces cuando un gran neumático de bicicleta es lanzado de la nada por alguien en la multitud. Parece que iba dirigido a uno de los policías, pero golpea a una inocente mujer que estaba de pie que cae al suelo de inmediato y se golpea fuertemente con el suelo. La gente se asusta, y otra mujer con un bebé la examina.

El video se corta después de eso, por lo que no está claro lo que sucedió después. La policía de Gales del Norte se ha referido al incidente, que ocurrió el jueves. Dicen que los oficiales fueron desplegados para responder a los reclamos de desorden público, pero no dicen lo que pasó exactamente.

A woman appeared to be knocked unconscious after somebody threw a loose tire at her during an absolutely crazy fight between cops and citizens in Wales ... and it's on video.

This clip is pretty tough to watch considering the brutality shown. It depicts a decent-sized crowd of people straight up battling with a handful of police officers in the streets of Wrexham -- specifically, in the village of Rhosllanerchrugog.

You see cops trying to wrestle a man down in a residential neighborhood -- with a bunch of people (presumably neighbors) watching ... including tons of kids. Some of the adult bystanders actually appear to get in the mix. Safe to say, it's complete violent chaos.

Eventually, it looks like the police are actually surrounded by hostile citizens and they bust out their batons -- telling them to get back, threatening to swing on them. One officer even deploys his pepper spray as the other cops continue dealing with someone on the ground.

That's when a large bicycle tire gets hurled out of nowhere by someone out in the crowd. It appears to have been intended for one of the cops -- but it hits an innocent lady who's just standing there. She goes down immediately, losing all control of her body ... hitting the ground hard. People are freaking out, and another woman carrying a baby checks on her.

The clip cuts out after that -- so it's unclear what happens after. North Wales Police have since addressed this incident, which occurred Thursday. They say officers were deployed to respond to reports of public disorder, but they don't say what that was exactly.
