Major Injuries Occur during Domestic Fight

Police were called to a routine domestic violence last week in Santa Ana, California. However, they took two people into custody since they are not certain who actually started the reported fight. When officers arrived on the scene, they found that both parties were seriously injured. It turns out that the man was actually the nephew of a late celebrity and his live-in girlfriend. Several neighbors had called 911 when the shouting became more than they could handle. While neither party needed to be treated at a hospital, both sustained injuries that made it difficult for officers to determine who was at fault. They were brought to an Orange County jail and are being held on $50,000 bail.
