It was reported on Aug. 29 by TMZ, that former WWE Divas Champion Nikki Garcia’s (Bella) husband, Artem Chigvintsev, had been arrested for domestic battery. At the time of the initial report, not much more was provided. Here is some follow up from TMZ.
TMZ has obtained the dispatch call: “Initially came in as requesting medical, but now he is stating he got into an argument with his wife and his wife threw shoes at rp [reporting party].”
“There is a child on scene. Medical en route,” adding, “There’s an active 415 [disturbing the peace] in the background responsible.”
As TMZ reported yesterday after the initial report, Artem then called the paramedics off, which is reflected by the dispatcher who says, “RP is stating no medical is needed now.”
In addition, it was noted that the child was with Garcia while Garcia and Chigvintsev were physically separated. Police reportedly still showed up an hour later. They saw visible injuries on the alleged victim and arrested Artem for felony corporal injury to a spouse.
A representative for Garcia did provide a message asking for privacy to the family at this time.
TMZ has posted more on the couples relationship that can be read below.
