Over the weekend reps for actor Jonathan Majors assured media outlets that assault charges filed against him would be dropped after the alleged victim recanted her claims [click here if you missed that].
The charges have NOT been dropped...
Actor Jonathan Majors was arraigned on several assault and harassment charges Sunday, the Manhattan DA’s office tells CNN.
The complaint does not name the female accuser but claims the defendant did “strike her about the face with an open hand, causing substantial pain and a laceration behind her ear.”
She also claims the defendant “put his hand on her neck, causing bruising and substantial pain.”
Majors, 33, was taken into custody following a 911 call made from an apartment in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan, according to a statement from the New York Police Department.
The Manhattan DA’s office would not comment regarding the defense attorney’s claims the woman recanted.
