Devin Ratray, who is best known for starring in the hit movie ‘Home Alone‘, has reportedly been arrested on the grounds of domestic violence.
‘Home Alone’ Star Devin Ratray Arrested On Domestic Violence Charges
According to reports, the authorities were initially called out after an alleged altercation had occurred between Devin and his girlfriend at a hotel in Oklahoma City.
It is suggested that his girlfriend informed the police that Devin had gotten angry after drinking and being upset that she did not charge some fans for autograph cards.
With things getting out of hand, the court documents alleged that Devin had stated: “This is how you die,” with the result that “[the] victim had trouble breathing while she was being strangled and while the defendant’s hand was over her mouth.”
Although the police initially left without making an arrest, the very fact of the matter is that Devin’s girlfriend would go on to file a police report.
In that report she had claimed that Devin had been “physical with her during the argument, strangling her and putting his hand over her mouth.
“She says she bit his hand, he punched her in the face and she escaped to a stairwell.” With an investigation ongoing in order to determine whether or not Devin had something to answer for, it is clear that the authorities have now acted upon the evidence and apprehended him.
It is claimed that Devin had “turned himself in and was processed through and bonded out.” He is being faced with charges of battery and assault with the bail set at $25,000.
The response on social media was one of outrage. The majority of people were in shock at the fact that Devin could have been capable of doing such a thing.
After all, the actor had been a significant part of many people’s childhood by virtue of the success of the ‘Home Alone’ movies.
One person on Twitter wrote: “Innocent until proven guilty. Being charged with a crime doesn’t mean they did it,” while another person stated: “Total buzz kill.”
Regardless of the outcome of the investigation, it is clear that the fans will never be able to watch Home Alone in the same way. If you liked reading this article, then check out our other features on the Daily Soap Dish.
