May 23 2019, Updated 12:55 p.m. ET
Jersey Shore star Ronnie Ortiz-Magro’s baby mama Jen Harley spoke exclusively with RadarOnline.com about her shocking arrest that landed her behind bars in Las Vegas.
She was taken into custody in Sin City on May 17 on a misdemeanor domestic battery charge and held on a $3,000 bond.
Jen told RadarOnline.com that she was shocked that she had an outstanding warrant from her New Year’s Eve incident with her on-again off-again boyfriend Ronnie.
“It wasn’t that big of a deal. It was just from some old s**t,” she told RadarOnline.com.
However, Ronnie filed a domestic battery report against her on New Year’s Eve after she allegedly threw an ashtray at him, as RadarOnline.com previously reported.
“On January 3, 2019, a man came to an LVMPD substation to file a Battery Domestic Violence report against his girlfriend,” according to a statement from the Las Vegas Police Department. “According to the man, the alleged battery occurred on December 31, 2018 at approximately 11:43 p.m."
