Mario mugshot 2010

VIA: ConcreteLoop.com

R&B Singer/actor Mario Bennett was arrested early Friday morning after allegedly assaulting his mother in and Baltimore, Maryland apartment. He was reportedly charged with 2nd degree assault and released on a $50,000 bond. Check out the info TMZ got below:

According to police, Mario’s mother Shawntia Hardaway — a former heroin addict — told cops the former “Dancing with the Stars” contestant had been “throwing and damaging property” … and pushed her around with his hands and forearms.

Cops say they found several broken items inside the apartment — including a broken china cabinet, a busted mirror and a hole in the closet door.

Mario’s mother also told police the 24-year-old singer had attacked her earlier in the week — in which he pushed her “eight feet into a living room wall, where Ms. Hardaway hit her head on the wall.”

In related news, some of you may remember the MTV documentary that Mario filmed about 3 years ago depicting the struggle he has had with his mother and her constant drug use. So I wouldn’t be surprised if that was the main cause of the incident. Peep a clip from that doc below:
