Investigators say Braves' Marcell Ozuna threatened to kill his wife before domestic violence arrest

An arrest affidavit has revealed new details surrounding the arrest of Atlanta Braves outfielder Marcell Ozuna, and they paint a disturbing picture of what allegedly went down before police arrived at the scene.

Ozuna was arrested Saturday on a count of aggravated assault strangulation and misdemeanor battery-family violence charges. The charge is reportedly a felony with a minimum one year in prison and maximum of 20. MLB has also announced it will investigate Ozuna under its domestic violence policy.

Ozuna was granted a $20,000 bond on Monday, according to the Associated Press, with an order of no contact with his wife.
