According to cops, the alleged victim told deputies Ayanna — born Charlotte Lopez<\/a> — threatened his life, battered him, and spread cremated human remains inside the residence.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Authorities also allege Ayanna kicked a deputy during the investigation … and she was ultimately arrested on suspicion of criminal threats, elder abuse, battery on a peace officer, and depositing human remains outside of a cemetery.<\/p>\n

On Monday, prosecutors filed three misdemeanor counts … battery, elder or dependent adult abuse, and battery on a peace officer.<\/p>\n

When contacted for comment, Ayanna told TMZ, “It was an unfair illegal false arrest. Not only was I never read my rights, including the Miranda rights, but | was never even interviewed to talk to.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ayanna is known for her role in “Training Day,” which starred Denzel Washington<\/a>, and “Love the Hard Way” with Adrien Brody<\/a>. She won the Miss Teen USA competition in 1993.<\/p>\n

She’s being held on $50,000 bail.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"‘Training Day’ Charlotte Ayanna Arrested for Allegedly Kicking Cop, Spreading Human Ashes Published October 16, 2026 12:00 AM…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":884323,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[88],"class_list":["post-884322","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/884322","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=884322"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/884322\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/884323"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=884322"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=884322"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=884322"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
