“We are quickly gathering and presenting evidence to the District Attorney with the expectation that all charges will be dropped imminently.”

She added that there is video footage from the car where the alleged incident took place, as well as witness testimony from the driver and onlookers, plus two written statements from the woman recanting the allegations.

“All the evidence proves that Mr. Majors is entirely innocent and did not assault her whatsoever. Unfortunately, this incident came about because this woman was having an emotional crisis, for which she was taken to a hospital yesterday. The NYPD is required to make an arrest in these situations, and this is the only reason Mr. Majors was arrested. We expect these charges to be dropped soon.”

Police in New York said they responded to a 911 call at a Chelsea apartment. The star was taken into custody without incident on Saturday night (March 25). The unnamed victim is a 30-year-old woman who was hospitalized with “minor injuries to her head and neck,” according to police. Get more details about the incident.
