On October 3, Jersey Shore star Ronnie Magro was tased and arrested following a violent altercation with girlfriend Jen Harley. Sadly, to those familiar with this twosome, this was one of those stories that registers as both shocking and not shocking at all. While it’s obviously never okay to blame the victim, Jen has committed several acts of violence against Ronnie in the past. Perhaps most notably, there was the infamous incident in which Harley actually dragged him with her car in mid-argument. So some Shore fans might have been hesitant to condemn Ronnie’s actions this time around. However, they may feel differently after seeing photos of the brutal injuries Jen allegedly sustained in her fight with Ron. The photos — obtained by TMZ and published by the site late Monday night — show large scrapes and bruises on Harley’s shoulder and thigh. Sources close to Jen say she suffered the injuries when Ron dragged her across the concrete driveway of the Los Angeles Airbnb where the fight took place. Not surprisingly, Magro’s team offers a very different version of events. They say Jen was behaving erratically, and when Ron attempted to remove the couple’s 1-year-old daughter Ariana to a safer location, she resisted him. Magro allegedly claims that Jen suffered the shoulder injury when she fell backward off a fence after he took Ariana away from her. He claims the thigh injury occurred when she clung to him as he attempted to re-enter the house with his daughter. Though he has yet to speak publicly on the matter, Ronnie claimed in a statement to police that Jen was heavily intoxicated on the night of the incident, which caused him to become concerned for Ariana’s safety. On Monday, Harley was issued an emergency order of protection against Magro, which prevents him from making contact with her until October 11. According to TMZ, she’ll be in court this week to try and have the terms of the restraining order extended beyond that date. Ronnie was reportedly permitted to reclaim items he left in Jen’s home, but only with the presence of a police escort. The order of protection dictates similar requirements should Ronnie need to pick up or drop off Ariana, whom he is not prohibited from seeing. Sources close to the situation say Magro continues to maintain his innocence and believes the truth will come out in court. A trial date for the assault charges against him has not yet been revealed. We’ll keep you updated on this developing situation as more information becomes available. View Slideshow: Ronnie Magro: I’m Innocent, Bro! I Was Just Protecting My Daughter!
