Anna Anka, wife of singer-composer Paul Anka, was arrested and booked for domestic battery.
ET says that the police report describes how Mrs. Anka threw a piece of ice at her husband. It hit him in the head, opening a gash that required two staples to close. When he came home from the hospital his wife was gone. Anka called the Ventura County Sheriff's Department and reported her missing; when she returned, they learned the rest of the story and arrested her.
The Ventura County District Attorney's office decided not to file charges.
The couple married this summer and have a child together.
In addition to writing the theme song for Johnny Carson's stint on The Tonight Show, Anka composed such hits as My Way and Put Your Head on My Shoulder.
