In a surprising turn of events, Raymond Cruz, best known for his role in the critically acclaimed series Breaking Bad, was arrested in Los Angeles on September 8, 2022. The incident occurred around 10:40 a.m., and the news was first reported by TMZ.

According to Cruz's talent agent, Raphael Berko, the actor was washing his car when a white minivan parked too close. Cruz asked the women inside to move, but they refused. A dispute ensued, and Cruz, while hosing his car, allegedly sprayed water towards the women. One of them called the police, leading to Cruz's arrest.

The women inside the minivan were not identified in the article. However, it was reported that some of the water from Cruz's hose hit the front of his car and spilled on their vehicle. Despite the escalation, Cruz did not harm anyone during the incident, as confirmed by LAPD officer David Cuellar.

Upon his arrest, Cruz was put in handcuffs and taken to jail. Despite this being his first arrest, Cruz appreciates the way LAPD officers treated him. He was released later the same day on his own recognizance.

The specific details of the dispute that led to the water being sprayed are not provided in the article. No misdemeanor charges have been formally filed against Raymond Cruz at this time. The outcome of the battery investigation is not mentioned in the article. Raymond Cruz is scheduled to appear in court on October 1.

Berko also stated that Cruz was washing his car when the incident occurred. He added that the actor has always been cooperative with the authorities and looks forward to clearing his name.

This incident serves as a reminder that even in the public eye, everyday disputes can occur. As the case progresses, more details are expected to come to light. For now, fans of Cruz's work can only wait and see how this situation unfolds.
