Actress Emma Roberts was arrested here for hitting her actor boyfriend Evan Peters, but she was released soon.

The 22-year-old actress was taken into custody July 7 after she got into a physical fight with Peters, reports tmz.com.

Local law enforcement sources said that the couple, who have been together for a year, were overheard fighting in their room and someone from the hotel called the police.

The source said that police officers immediately arrested Roberts after arriving at the scene and witnessing Peter's bloody nose.

The 26-year-old actor also had a bite mark on his body.

Roberts was taken into custody, but was released hours later as Peters declined to press charges.

A source close to the actress said they were both hitting each other and Roberts was arrested because Peters had more physical injuries.
