Clark was jailed in Erie County, Ohio on a domestic violence allegation Sunday. MLive.com released more details on the incident Monday. According to the story:
"The (alleged victim) got angry, threw a TV remote control at (Clark), and he responded by trying to restrain her on the bed. She told the officer she tried to get loose by biting his nose. Then she said he pushed her head into the bed, they got off the bed and he punched her in the face, knocking her back and breaking a lamp. She stated that she threw an alarm clock at him as he prepared to leave the room."
