News broke from Moss’ arrest from the Associated Press, who also reported that the reason both parties were arrested and charged was because they couldn’t determine who was the primary aggressor when police showed up.

When police responded to a call in Midtown Atlanta, Leslie Holden told them Moss had assaulted her, while Moss told officers Holden assaulted him.

Moss’ attorney, Joe Habachy, has issued his statement following the arrest. Habachy also said that Moss was released on a signature bond.

Shad Bow Wow Moss was wrongfully arrested earlier this morning for the first time after being beaten by an out of control intoxicated female, Ms. Leslie Holden, in an Atlanta condominium. The only two independent witnesses both corroborated his version of events indicating that Ms. Holden was simply out of control and was without a doubt the primary aggressor.  For no logical reason officers arrested both parties despite having clear-cut evidence that Bow Wow was the victim in the case.  Ms. Holden beat him with a lamp, bit him on his side, and spit on him while Bow Wow continually made efforts to avoid her.  Bow Wow suffered multiple injuries, some of which are visible in his mugshot.  Ms. Holden’s mugshot on the other hand speaks for itself, despite her allegation to police that she broke a fingernail.”
