The couple, said to be supporters of Bernie Sanders, said Pierce became enraged when the unknown woman declared her support for the Vermont senator. Pierce, who most recently co-starred in the HBO drama Confirmation in the role of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, allegedly pushed a male victim and then “went after his girlfriend…grabbing her hair and smacking her in the head,” according to TMZ.
Ironically, Pierce also brought the role of storied civil rights leader and Atlanta icon Rev. Hosea Williams to life in the movie Selma. Williams was known to be civil, but tough.
Sources contacted by The Daily Beast disputed the described events, saying the woman stepped into an altercation already under way.
Hotel security was alerted a short time later. The security staff, following protocol, alerted the Atlanta Police Department. The actor and political activist was arrested on battery charges. Pierce was released after posted a $1,000 bond, according to the Fulton County website.
