AceShowbiz - Kim Delaney, the 63-year-old actress renowned for her portrayal of Detective Diane Russell on the hit series "NYPD Blue", was arrested on Saturday, March 29, at her Los Angeles home on suspicion of felony assault.

Delaney's partner, James Morgan, was also taken into custody and charged with misdemeanor domestic violence following what TMZ reported as a "heated argument that turned physical."

The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department revealed that Delaney was arrested for "assault with a deadly weapon" at 10:15 a.m. while Morgan was taken into custody about half an hour earlier.

Paramedics were called to the scene to assess any potential injuries, and after being medically cleared, authorities proceeded with the arrests.

Delaney remains in custody while Morgan has been released on a $20,000 bail. Both are scheduled to appear in court on Tuesday, April 1.

Kim Delaney's acting career spans several iconic television series, including "Army Wives", "The O.C.", "All My Children", and "Chicago Fire". She won an Emmy in 1997 for NYPD Blue and received two additional nominations in 1998 and 1999 for the role that made her a household name.

This recent investigation is not Delaney's first run-in with the law. In 2002, she was arrested for drunk driving and subsequently went to a rehabilitation facility the next year. In 2005, another DUI incident resulted in Delaney losing custody of her teenage son.

Most recently, in 2024, she was ordered to complete community service and a safe-driving program after an alleged hit-and-run incident in late 2022.

Details of her latest run-in with the law are still scarce, but her court date will undoubtedly shed light on the incident.
