In a press release by the Maui County Police Department, Colorado Rockies shortstop Jose Reyes was indeed arrested in Maui, Hawaii, last month for allegedly assaulting his wife.

According to the statement, Jose Reyes was charged and arrested for allegedly abusing a family or household member, namely his wife. The incident happened while the couple were at the Four Seasons Resort in Wailea, Maui, on Halloween.

The released report read, "Mr. Reyes and his wife were involved in an argument that turned physical and resulted in injuries. Mrs. Reyes was treated by medics at the scene and later transported to the Maui Memorial Medical Center for further treatment."  

After the October 31 incident, Reyes was asked to post a bail of $1,000 and also issued a warning citation not to contact his wife Katherine for three days. He was released soon after, according to Maui P.D.

Through their official Twitter account, the Rockies' response to the incident was:

“We were extremely disappointed and concerned to learn of the allegations involving Jose Reyes. We continue to gather information and will address this matter appropriately, in accordance with Major League Baseball’s Joint Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault and Chile Abuse Policy.”

Reyes could become the first player subject to Major League Baseball's domestic violence policy, which was agreed upon by MLB and the players' association in August.

The policy does not include suggested guidelines for length of suspension, rather, it allows Commissioner Rob Manfred to “issue the discipline he believes is appropriate in light of the harshness of the conduct.

"The Commissioner’s authority to discipline is not dependent on whether the player is convicted or pleads guilty to a crime.”

Previously, the 32-year-old played for the New York Mets, Miami Marlins, and the Toronto Blue Jays.

In 2011, he was the National League batting champion and New York Mets' all-time leader in triples and stolen bases.

During off season, Reyes stays home on Long Island.

Reyes and his wife Katherine used to lived in Manhasset with their three daughters but have recently moved to Old Brookville.

Reyes and former right-handed pitcher José Lima were really good friends. He remembered Lima as, "He's the funniest guy you could ever meet, he always smiled, he was always happy. It was good to know him." Lima passed away on March 23, 2010.
