Kim Delaney will not face assault charges related to her arrest in connection with felony assault, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office announced Tuesday.
Delaney, who starred in TV series “NYPD Blue,” “Army Wives” and “The O.C.,” was arrested Saturday morning by deputies from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
At the time of her arrest, LASD officials said she was facing potential charges for felony assault with a deadly weapon.
Citing law enforcement sources, TMZ reported that Delaney and her partner got into an altercation that became physical. LASD officials confirmed to KTLA that there was a domestic disturbance call made Saturday morning.
“Subsequent to an investigation by deputies, Mrs. Kim Delaney was arrested for an assault with a deadly weapon and Mr. James Morgan was arrested for battery,” a statement provided to KTLA reads.
Delaney, 65, was scheduled to appear in court Tuesday morning.
But later in the day, the D.A.’s Office confirmed that charges would not be pursued due to “insufficient evidence.”
Delaney played Det. Diane Russell on ABC’s “NYPD Blue” between 1995 and 2003, per IMDb. During the course of the series, she was nominated for an Emmy three times (in 1997, 1998 and 1999), winning once in 1997 for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series.
