Emma Roberts Arrested: Allegedly Bloodied Boyfriend's Nose

Generally the domestic violence cases that make the headlines involve male on female abuse.

But in the case of Emma Roberts, police arrested her after responding to reports of a fight with her boyfriend and "American Horror Story" costar Evan Peters. The incident took place earlier this month in Montreal, Canada, according to TMZ, who broke the story. The couple were allegedly overheard fighting in the 22-year-old Roberts' hotel room on July 7.

Law enforcement responded to a phone call and found Peters with a bloody nose and a bite mark, according to the TMZ report.

Roberts, who is the daughter of "The Dark Knight" and "The Human Centipede III" actor Eric Roberts and niece to Julia Roberts, was sprung from jail after just a few hours as her beau declined to press charges.

The TMZ story says Emma's friends deny that any biting took place and said both Roberts and Peters were striking each other. Roberts was arrested as Peters was the one with visible wounds.

Emma rose to fame via the Nickelodeon show "Unfabulous." Her screen credits include "Scream 4," in which [SPOILER ALERT] her character was revealed to have masterminded the killings.

26-year-old Peters will appear in the bizarrely controversial role of Quicksilver (both Fox's "X-Men" and Disney/Marvel's "The Avengers" plan to use the character) in Bryan Singer's "X-Men: Days of Future Past."

Roberts and Peters were last photographed together at the premiere of "The Lone Ranger." Roberts will also appear in an episode of FX's "American Horror Story," set to air in October.
