According to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, the actress – also known for her long-running role in NYPD Blue – was taken into custody on Saturday morning, alongside her partner, James.
In a report released by TMZ, Kim, 63, was initially arrested at her LA home, with paramedics arriving on the scene to check both the actress and her boyfriend for signs of injury. After they were medically cleared, the pair were then taken into custody by police.
According to PEOPLE, a spokesperson has confirmed that Kim was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon, while Morgan was arrested for domestic violence. Meanwhile, the LASD has stated that both Kim and James are due to appear in court on Tuesday, April 1.
Kim, who has appeared as Jennifer Sheridan – the mother of Taylor Kinney’s Kelly Severide – in Chicago Fire, has had a few brushes with the law. Back in 2002, the TV star was arrested on suspicion of drunk driving after refusing to take a breathalyzer. She pleaded no contest in court and was ultimately sentenced to two years of probation. By 2003, Kim had checked herself into a rehab center.
