The actress and former child star was arrested Friday on suspicion of domestic battery, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department confirmed to USA TODAY on Tuesday. Jackson, 22, was apprehended during an outing at Universal Studios Hollywood.
"While inside the Universal Studios Theme Park, a domestic incident occurred involving Skai Jackson," an LASD spokesperson told the Los Angeles Times in a statement. "Based on the initial investigation, it was determined Ms. Jackson was the primary aggressor and was arrested for misdemeanor spousal battery."

Authorities subsequently reviewed surveillance footage from the L.A. theme park, which allegedly showed Jackson pushing the unidentified victim, per People magazine and LAT.
No injuries were reported following the altercation, the LASD spokesperson said.
Jackson was then taken to LASD's West Hollywood station for booking and was released a few hours later.
