FARRAH'S ARREST

The incident occurred at Grandmaster Records in Hollywood, where the 31-year-old was partying with a friend.

An eyewitness told TMZ that someone in the club allegedly assaulted them, noting that the person was described as a Farrah "hater."

The Teen Mom OG alum allegedly became hostile and was asked to leave the club.

However, she refused to leave and even allegedly slapped the security guard.

A source told the outlet that cops weren't initially called to the scene, though someone called for paramedics.

Once the paramedics arrived, someone presumed to be the TV personality allegedly became so aggressive that police officers had to be called in for backup.

The outlet claimed that someone made a citizen's arrest.

It's assumed the arrest was made by the security guard, though it has not yet been confirmed.

Farrah was then taken into custody and released soon after.

FARRAH'S SIDE OF THE STORY

One day after the arrest, Farrah shared a video of herself on the ground during the altercation.

The 16 and Pregnant alum was on her stomach, as a security guard held her arms back and pushed her leg down.

Farrah attempted to move her body, as the security guard restrained her.

She wrote at the bottom of the post, “never again.”

Farrah tagged the venue in the following slide and wrote: "What a horrible dining experience being battered and assaulted by your staff. Such an unsafe, disturbing environment.”

Farrah continued to slam the venue in another post, writing: “The staff yet again attack a paying customer and hold me against my will and hurt me. The only 1 out of 3, woman abuse must stop.”

Farrah added that the club’s staff “should be in jail.”

The following clip showed the security guard struggling to keep Farrah on the ground.

She called the experience “scary,” adding that she’s “tired of people harassing me, holding me down, hurting me and lying about me and selling things to TMZ.”

Farrah insisted the photos and videos from the incident were "evidence" of the staff's wrongdoings.

She then shared a close-up of her bruised arm, which she captioned: "Bruised and beaten at dinner."

Farrah continued to share her side of the story by posting the video on her Instagram feed, writing:  "I’m putting a restraining order on @antonelloparloto who made this dinner reservation and conspired an attack on myself with the staff at @grandmaster_recorders as it was a 'private persons arrest' complete setup.

"I’ve had a very traumatizing year and I don’t deserve to be attacked, bruised, men on me, and battered.

"As a single mother to be harassed, battered, and conspired against as a paying customer @grandmaster_recorders should fire their management, and security for all contributing to attacking 1 person out of 3 people."

After thanking Hollywood police for "rescuing" her, she added: "I realize it’s no longer safe for woman to go out to eat in their own neighborhoods.

"I look forward to my law degree and I look forward to court. Justice will be served as always."

TROUBLES WITH THE LAW

The incident was not the first time Farrah – the mother of 13-year-old daughter Sophia – has found herself in trouble with the law.

Back in 2018, Farrah was arrested after allegedly striking an employee at the Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

She has since been banned from the premises due to the incident.

According to TMZ, Farrah entered a guilty plea as part of a plea deal following her 2018 arrest.

Farrah's battery charge was dropped as part of the plea deal.
