Noir Nation, things have taken a serious turn in the world of actor and choreographer Columbus Short!

According to TMZ, the Stomp the Yard star was recently granted a temporary restraining order against his wife, Aida Abramyan, after claiming she became violent during a heated domestic dispute that allegedly involved their 10-week-old puppy and their children.

In court documents, Columbus alleges that Aida kicked and threw their puppy during an argument that took place in their home. When he attempted to intervene, he claims she physically attacked him—punching him in the face and busting his eye open, which reportedly drew blood. A neighbor, who overheard the altercation, told police she heard Aida “screaming very loudly as if she was being murdered.” Authorities were called to the scene, and upon noticing visible injuries on Columbus, Aida was arrested.

The restraining order, granted by a judge, requires Aida to stay at least 100 yards away from Columbus, their two children, and their pets. Columbus is also requesting that she be removed from their home but continue paying the rent during the separation.

Columbus went on to tell the court that this wasn’t an isolated incident. He claims Aida has displayed ongoing verbal and emotional abuse, and says past arguments have involved her throwing objects, including a trophy—and even using knives to threaten him. He also said that since bringing the puppy home on June 21st, tensions in their household have escalated significantly.

As of now, Aida Abramyan has not publicly commented on the situation or responded to the allegations made against her.
