Jarell Damonte Houston, Marques Houston's cousin, was arrested Monday afternoon for "corporal punishment on a spouse" as well as for outstanding warrants relating to an allegedly bad driving record. Neighbors say they heard screaming from the house, and when the police were called, they arrived to the residence 6 or 7 squad cars deep. J-Boog isn't known to be seeing anyone besides the mother of his child, so we assume this is the women in question.

In other news, former NBA player Jayson Williams struck a tree with his Benz-SUV this morning at 3:15 AM after veering off an exit, suffering minor injuries. Police said he may have been drinking before the crash. Williams was in the passenger seat when officers arrived and told them "Happy New Years,ociffers, my driver is looking for a pay phone to call AAA." and someone else had been driving. But witnesses (who happen to be up at 3:15AM) told police they saw him in the driver's seat, and officers said no one else was in the car. He was taken to Bellevue Hospital presumedly to be checked into its K-Ward.
