TMZ reported that Martirosyan’s wife was able to get away. The police found her after they were called to the couple’s home in Glendale, California, and she apparently had a bruise on her arm and an injured nose. She reportedly denied any medical assistance. According to TMZ, the police filed a report and Martirosyan was arrested the next day. He was released on $50,000 bond.
