Columbus Short Arrested For Allegedly Assaulting Wife

Columbus Short has been arrested once again for domestic violence.

According to reports cops were called to a home in the San Fernando Valley Wednesday night around 10:30 PM over a verbal argument between Short and his wife that allegedly became physical.

Law enforcement told TMZ when cops arrived Columbus claimed his wife, Aida Abramyan punched him in the face but he had no marks. Cops say they then spoke to his wife and noticed a minor injury. Though the injury did not require medical attention, cops arrested Short for felony domestic violence.

Short spent about 12 hours locked up before posting a $50K bond. He has yet to be charged.

The former Scandal star took to social media to address the incident. He captioned the now deleted video post “ I am not an abusive man nor am I on drugs … my wife and I are working on our marriage.”

As you know, Short has been arrested for domestic violence before. Back in 2018, he was arrested for assaulting Aida and ended up pleading no contest and served 34 days behind bars.

Short and Aida secretly tied the knot in 2016. The couple share one child.

In 2014, Short’s marriage to actress and dancer Tanee McCall also made headlines following a domestic violence altercation at the couples home. McCall claimed Short pulled a knife on her and also threatened to kill himself. That same year (after filing from divorce) she also got a restraining order against Short.
