'Lopez' star Ray Diaz accused of domestic violence by a second woman
Just a few days after actor Ray Diaz was arrested for domestic abuse, a second woman has come forward with the same allegation.
TMZ reported that Diaz, who starred alongside George Lopez for one season on 'Lopez', is being accused of "roughing up a woman he used to date a couple of years ago". The second woman came forward last week and filed a battery report.
The woman is said to have claimed that she has video evidence of Ray's violent actions against her and detectives are reviewing the footage. The news comes on the heels of Ray's current girlfriend alleging that he assaulted her and repeatedly prevented her from calling the police.
According to the site's sources, the case was presented to the L.A. City Attorney's Office, who decided they will have an informal hearing with Ray to discuss the alleged incident. There are chances of City Attorney filing charges against him.
The former Team 10 member was arrested earlier this June for alleged domestic violence. It was reported that he allegedly got into an argument with his 19-year-old girlfriend, Landi Hicks, earlier this month, and things quickly turned violent. The same site reported that he "grabbed and pulled [his girlfriend] so violently, she suffered neck scratches and bruising on her leg.”
It is alleged that Lopez alum’s girlfriend tried calling 911 when he started getting violent, but he grabbed the phone away from her. She then tried to get Alexa to call for help, but he allegedly unplugged the device. The teenager filed a police report two days later and Ray was arrested for domestic violence. He was taken to jail, but was released on $50,000 bail.
Ever since his arrest, a disturbing audio has emerged of what is allegedly Ray, who also dated Lele Pons in the past, is heard verbally abusing his girlfriend. He cusses at her, yells at her and spits at her during a disagreement. The 32-year-old denied all allegations.
