Teen Mom 2 star arrested after turning herself in
Yesterday it was reported that police in South Carolina were on the hunt for Teen Mom 2 star Jenelle Evans following reports of a violent assault against her estranged fiancé.
Now it seems the reality star has turned herself in and is facing charges today.
Jenelle called off her engagement with Nathan Griffith earlier this year, but police were called yesterday after she reportedly showed up at his apartment and began physically attacking him.
According to a police report obtained by TMZ, Jenelle called Nathan to inform him that she was outside his home and was damaging his car.
When police finally arrived, Jenelle had disappeared but Nathan reportedly had "scratches around his neck, a ripped shirt and bruising on the side of his face." Nathan also alleged that he had been pushed down a flight of stairs.
Jenelle began trying to clear her name via Twitter yesterday, posting from her "official PR" account to say that the argument had started when Nathan refused to give back the couple's 11-month-old son Kaiser after a custody visit.
For those asking,Jenelle was at Nathan's to pick up her son.Nathan stole her phone & refused to hand over Kaiser.This is how it started.
