The dispute had taken place on February 21st. Carter had "punched" Martin on her left side, resulting in broken ribs.

"He punched me in the rib and pushed me," Martin detailed in the documents, "I didn't feel the pain until a few days later, then I left the house because he threatened to give me a restraining order."

She also revealed the dispute had been the result of an argument about Martin "talking to another man while we were broken up."

Martin also sought medical attention for her injuries.
