Kim Foxx “became physical,” her husband claimed, according to the website. He said that she blocked the exit from a bathroom and grabbed him by the collar, CWB Chicago reported.
“He tried to turn on the TV, and Kimberly snatched the controller out of his hand and threw the controller,” the report stated, noting that Kim Foxx confirmed her husband’s account, according to the website.
Kelley Foxx said his wife slapped him. Officers saw no indication of a bruise.
The report said Kelley Foxx told officers he “just wants to be left alone.”
“She can’t come in my personal space and put her hands on me,” Kelley Foxx told police.
The report said Kelley Foxx “wanted to make sure someone understands what is happening here,” in terms of the physical aggression he alleged took place, according to CWB Chicago.
“He added that he just wanted it to stop,” the report stated, according to the website.
As for the other side of the story, “Kimberly explained that she did put her hands on Kelley, but it was only to help guide him out of the house,” the police report stated, according to the website.
“She never slapped him,” the report said Kim Foxx told officers, according to the website.
Kim Foxx indicated she did not feel unsafe in the home, and that they both said “things have never been physical” in their relationship, the report state, according to the website.
Police “did not see any evidence to support an arrest in this incident.”
Foxx was at the center of controversy over her role in the Jussie Smollett case. Foxx refused to prosecute the case, leading to an outbreak of anger and eventually the appointment of a special prosecutor who later charged Smollett.
He was convicted on charges that he lied to police when he claimed he was assaulted in 2019. Smollett’s conviction has been appealed.
