The couple allegedly got into a heated argument after Swanson showed up to Tyga’s house at 3 a.m. uninvited.
Although, those claims are being refuted by Swanson herself who posted a screenshot of a series of texts between her and Tyga on her Instagram story that imply that she was invited to his home, but that when she tried to leave he “physically assaulted and refused to let me leave for hours.”
Swanson also shared a video of her bruised eye and blood on the sleeve of her sweatshirt, writing: “I’m so embarrassed and ashamed it had to get like this but I have to stand up for myself.”
Following the alleged dispute between Swanson and Tyga, Swanson’s mother came to pick her up where the cops were called to report the incident.
When authorities arrived on the scene, a report for felony domestic violence was filed and police allegedly found visible marks on Swanson.
Tyga has since turned himself in to authorities and could be facing a charge of felony domestic violence.
