Bustle has reached out to Ross' rep for comment, but has not yet heard back.

Stevens explained that on June 7 the Sheriff's Office "initiated an investigation regarding an assault which occurred at a residence on Highway 279." Through this, Ross and his bodyguard, Nadrian Lateef James, were identified a suspects, according to Stevens. Allegedly, Ross got into a fight with someone who was doing work on his home and pistol whipped this person.
