According to TMZ, neighbors called the police after hearing screams from the actor's house. When the police arrived, they would have heard Stuart and his wife, Agatha Araya, argue – the argument so loud that it could be heard from outside the home.

After the officers had understood the situation and separated the two men, Stuart would have warned Agatha not to say anything. Stuart, said TMZ, "would have taken his wife by the arms and, at some point … refused to let her go when she would have tried."

Agatha's complaint was pain in her arms when she spoke to the police, but added that the pain did not warrant additional medical care.

The cameras spotted Stuart and Agatha hand in hand after dinner in Los Angeles on Friday, and both swept the incident.

The actor, who had previously attended Charlize Theron for nine years, had been detained for a domestic violence charge. He also faces two counts of unlawful imprisonment and deters one of them from reporting a crime. He was released after posting a deposit of $ 50,000.

In speaking to TMZ, Stuart admitted that he and his wife had quarreled, but that the situation calmed down when the police arrived at the scene. Agatha added that she wished the case to be closed.
