Ted Williams, the Ohio homeless man whose golden voice made him a YouTube sensation and brought him offers of work, was detained by the Los Angeles Police Department Monday night at the Renaissance Hotel in Hollywood.

According to law enforcement sources, the arrest occurred after Ted had an allegedly violent altercation with his daughter. Ted told Entertainment Tonight, “Fists got to flying, none of which were mine.…In the process…I got scratched on my face.”

Ted’s daughter, Janey, recently shared her side of the story on an episode of Dr. Phil, “[Ted] said, ‘You, you fat [expletive],’ and when he said that, I just got angry.” She also claims that her father drinks heavily, and consumes “a bottle of Grey Goose” every night.

Ted and his daughter were released shortly after the arrest because police determined no crime was committed by either party.
