A 20-year-old Disney Channel star is accused of kicking a friend in the stomach after the pair allegedly got into an argument, PEOPLE confirms.
Uriah Shelton, who acted in Netflix’s "13 Reasons Why" and Disney’s "Girl Meets World", was hit with a restraining order after the alleged incident, according to court documents obtained by PEOPLE.
A woman who described herself as Shelton’s former best friend said in the documents that the pair argued after she tried to block him from getting into his truck.
“I was standing in the way of his truck door and he kicked me in the stomach to get me out of the way,” she said in the filing.
She described Shelton as an “MMA fighter who competed and has won titles.”
“Abdominal and chest trauma, internal muscle bruising, and inflamed intestines,” she said in the documents. The woman, who said she had a sexual relationship with Shelton, also said he told her about his firearms to scare her.
The judge ordered Shelton to stay 100 yards from the woman. He was also ordered to attend therapy sessions, and there will be a court hearing Nov. 14.
A rep for the actor told E! News that Shelton would “never harm another person.” Shelton did not reply to PEOPLE's request for comment.
