Police from the Pasco County Sheriff's Department responded to the couple's New Port Richey, Florida, home on Sunday evening.
According to the police report, Dash allegedly assaulted Marty with pushing, slaps and scratching.

In a statement Tuesday, Dash's rep says there are no charges against her:
"No charges were pressed by her husband, however, deputies arrested Ms. Dash peacefully, as a formality."
"Ms. Dash's husband appeared in court today, September 30th, on her behalf and Ms. Dash was released from the Land O’ Lakes detention facility. No further legal action is pending.
"The marital dispute, while personal and unfortunate, has since been blown out of proportion. An earlier report on TMZ.com said her manager told TMZ that she was attacked by her husband — both the source's relationship to Ms. Dash and the events of the evening were misrepresented."

Dash's rep also says the actress and former talk show host was also a previous victim of domestic abuse; her and her family are seeking privacy at this time.
"Ms. Dash is a domestic abuse survivor from a previous relationship and has championed for other abuse victims to speak up. The untruthfulness being reported saddens Ms. Dash and her family — no further comments will be made and we ask that Ms. Dash and her family's privacy will be respected."
