Ronnie Radke, 28, the former frontman of Las Vegas-based band Escape the Fate and current lead singer of Falling in Reverse, was arrested this week at his home in Glendale, California, for alleged domestic assault, according to The Glendale News-Press.

Radke, who left Las Vegas after being released from High Desert State Prison in Indian Springs in December of 2010, had a warrant issued for his arrest after his girlfriend told police he had physically assaulted her at their home on May 1.

He has since been released on a $30,000 bond.

Radke spent more than two years in prison after violating his parole over his role in the shooting death of a Nevada man in 2006. (Radke didn’t pull the trigger, but he pled guilty to one charge of battery with substantial bodily harm and was sentenced to five years probation.)

In a 2011 interview with Las Vegas Weekly, Radke said, “I feel very blessed. I don’t think many people get second chances when it comes to the music scene. It’s a fast-paced music scene now; people forget quicker than they did back in the day.”
