Skai Jackson will not be charged following her arrest on suspicion of domestic battery.
Skai Jackson won’t be charged following August arrest
In August, the former ‘Jessie’ star was arrested after police officers were called to Universal CityWalk in Los Angeles when security spotted Skai, 22, and her boyfriend arguing.
However, the Los Angeles County DA’s office is now declining to file charges against her.
A representative for Skai told PEOPLE: “Skai is relieved that the investigation revealed that this was nothing more than a misunderstanding. We appreciate that the DA determined very quickly that there should be no charges of any kind and Skai looks forward to putting this behind her.”
TMZ previously reported that Skai pushed her boyfriend “more than once” and the couple were detained by security until law enforcement arrived.
Both Skai and her boyfriend denied a physical fight and are said to have told officers that they were engaged.
However, after deputies reviewed the security footage and saw evidence of pushing, Jackson was arrested, cited and released a few hours later.
There were no weapons involved nor any identifiable injuries, according to the sheriff’s department at the time.
Skai and her unnamed partner have previously kept their relationship out of the public eye.
Skai played Zuri Ross on ‘Jessie’ and its spinoff ‘Bunk’d’ and appeared on ‘Dancing With the Stars’ in 2020.
