Wes Scantlin is facing felony charges following an alleged domestic dispute with his girlfriend.

The Puddle of Mudd frontman (whose full name is Wesley Reid Scantlin) was arrested in the early hours of Tuesday, March 11, after police in Torrance, Calif., were alerted to an alleged fight at his apartment, according to TMZ. The outlet was first to report the news. 

Citing law enforcement sources, TMZ reported that after speaking with both Scantlin, 52, and his girlfriend, whose identity was not revealed, police determined that the couple had gotten into a verbal dispute that escalated into a physical confrontation.

The musician’s girlfriend had visible marks on her arms, according to the outlet.

The Puddle of Mudd singer was subsequently arrested and upon searching him, police allegedly discovered a small amount of drugs on him, per TMZ.

Scantlin was arrested just after 4:00 a.m. local time and booked into jail at about 5:12 a.m., according to jail records viewed by PEOPLE. He was later released on Saturday, March 15, after posting bond.

The singer now faces felony charges which, TMZ reports, are for domestic violence and possession of a controlled substance.

He has two upcoming court appearances scheduled for March 28 and April 15, per records viewed by PEOPLE.

A rep for Scantlin did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment, nor did the Torrance Police Department.

The musician’s latest arrest comes after he made headlines earlier this month for giving a worrying performance at a charity concert, and later claiming he “was roofied” before the show by one of his ex-bandmates, according to Vice and Stereogum.

It also comes less than a year after the singer, who has a long history of legal issues, was arrested in California following a SWAT standoff.

The rocker made headlines last July when he was pulled over in Burbank, Calif., for an alleged traffic violation while he had an outstanding warrant for possession of a weapon at an airport.

As police interrogated Scantlin, who was alone in the vehicle, the singer refused to exit and, following multiple attempts of negotiation by the police and a crisis negotiator, he was pepper-sprayed.

About two hours later, a SWAT team arrived and encouraged the singer to exit the vehicle, and he obliged. He was then treated on scene by paramedics, transported to a local hospital and booked at the Burbank Jail for his outstanding warrant and for resisting arrest. 

Scantlin was also arrested twice in 2015 on suspicion of driving under the influence.
