Columbus Short Arrested

Short, 31, was arrested at 2 a.m. on Saturday. He was apprehended at he Katy Trail Ice House restaurant and beer garden in the Texas city, a DPD spokesperson Warren Mitchell told CNN.

It’s unknown when Short was released from custody.

Allegedly, Short was involved in a bar fight with one of the establishment’s guards after a day and night of celebrating Fourth of July, reported TMZ. When approached by police officers, Short apparently got into a physical altercation with them as well. He was then taken to jail.

Back in March of this year, Short was arrested for an incident at a West Los Angeles bar where he allegedly knocked a man out following a dispute. If convicted for the incident, Short stands to serve four years behind bars.

Short is also facing a charge of misdemeanor spousal battery against his wife Tuere Short, who has since successfully appealed for a restraining order, and filed for divorce.

In April, Short announced he would no longer be on Shonda Rhimes' political drama Scandal in light of his legal and personal troubles.
