– One of WWE’s developmental talents has been suspended indefinitely after being arrested and charged with several crimes stemming from an incident in which he allegedly struck his pregnant girlfriend. The Eagle Tribune reports that Terrance Jean-Jacques was arrested on Sunday after he allegedly hit Jillian Gillman.

Jean-Jacques, who signed with WWE in April, was arraigned Wednesday on charges of assault and battery, kidnapping, witness intimidation, destruction of property and threatening to commit a crime. He is being held without bail pending a hearing scheduled for Tuesday on whether he is a danger. The judge denied a request by Jean-Jacques’ mother to have him released into her custody, as he is scheduled to undergo surgery this week.

WWE told PW.net, “We have zero tolerance for matters involving domestic violence, and per our policy, Terrance Jean-Jacques has been suspended indefinitely following his arrest.”
