Actor Rick Schroder arrested on suspicion of domestic violence


Actor Rick Schroder was arrested early Wednesday in Los Angeles County on suspicion of domestic violence.
Deputies were called to the 49-year-old's home near Malibu, and upon arrival discovered evidence of a fight between Schroder and an unidentified woman, Los Angeles County sheriff's deputy Juanita Navarro said. Last month, Schroder was arrested following a similar incident with the woman, The Associated Press reports.
The actor, best known for his roles on Silver Spoons and NYPD Blue, is now out of jail after posting a $50,000 bond.
