Canadian actor Michael Smith, best known for playing the foul-mouthed, spectacle-wearing Bubbles on the Trailer Park Boys, was arrested in Hollywood early Friday morning for allegedly pinning a woman against a wall.

The Los Angeles Police Department confirmed late Friday evening that officers had arrested Smith and charged him with misdemeanour domestic battery. Officer Norma Eisenman, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles Police Department, declined to provide further details.

U.S. celebrity website TMZ reported the incident began at the city’s historic Roosevelt Hotel when Smith allegedly pinned a female friend up against a bathroom wall after an argument. Citing hotel guests who claimed to have witnessed the altercation, TMZ also said bystanders at the scene described the two shouting over who Smith had been texting. He allegedly fled the scene when police were called.

A LAPD Sheriff’s Department inmate database states Smith’s run-in with the law occurred just after 1 a.m. Friday morning. He wasn’t behind bars for long. Smith was released from a Hollywood police station roughly four hours later. His bail was set at $20,000 (U.S.).

Smith is scheduled to appear in a downtown Los Angeles courthouse on April 29.

Smith, a Nova Scotia native, rose to stardom as Bubbles in the hit Canadian mockumentary television series Trailer Park Boys, which follows the hijinks of three men living in a fictional trailer park.

The alleged incident occurred just days after the show’s 10th season debuted on Netflix earlier this week.
