Arnold Berdon, the husband of UFC flyweight Rachael Ostovich, has been arrested on a charge of attempted murder, according to reports on MMAfighting.com and TMZ.
Ostovich on Tuesday was forced to pull out of an upcoming January match against Paige VanZant after suffering a broken orbital bone in an attack over the weekend, allegedly by Berdon.
Berdon — who is also an MMA fighter — has not been arraigned and remains in jail, according to a Honolulu Police spokesperson, who also says the charge could still be changed.
Ostovich received a temporary restraining order against Berdon on Tuesday. It expires in May 2019.
The couple were married in 2016 and have a daughter together.
