According to the New York Post, which first broke the news of Pitt’s arrest, the multiple charges stem from four separate alleged incidents involving a former girlfriend between April 2020 and August 2021. Pitt allegedly attacked her with objects, including a wooden plank and a cinder block, at their home in Bushwick.

“Unfortunately, we live in a world where somebody like Mr. Pitt – an accomplished professional who would never so much as contemplate these crimes – can be arrested on the uncorroborated word of an unhinged individual,” Jason Goldman, an attorney for Pitt, told Variety in a statement. “In reality, this baseless claim is suspiciously raised some four or five years after the alleged incident, at a time when the two parties were in a completely consensual and voluntary relationship. This case will be dismissed.”
