Actress Maria Avgeropoulos arrested for assaulting her boyfriend

TMZ was told a man called police very early on August 5 from inside a car, claiming his girlfriend had hit him during a verbal argument. Sources say when police arrived, the man had marks on his body, so Marie was taken to jail.

A source close to Marie claims the actress was on new drugs and mixed it with wine during dinner that evening – which resulted in a bad reaction. Her boyfriend apparently called police thinking they’d diffuse the situation rather than arrest her as they’re both Canadian and unfamiliar with what’ll get a person hauled off to jail in the U.S.

Her boyfriend allegedly begged the police not to arrest her and even bailed her out after. Marie was released on $50,000 bond. TMZ reports that the boyfriend does not want to press charges.
