Overview
- Zaire Wade was arrested on suspicion of felony domestic violence, criminal threats and false imprisonment after Burbank police responded to a 911 call on Sunday that led officers to a woman with visible lacerations.
- Paramedics evaluated the woman at the scene but she was not taken to a hospital, and officers took a handgun from the residence as part of the investigation.
- An emergency protective order was issued for the alleged victim and Wade posted a $50,000 bond and was released later the same day.
- Burbank detectives are preparing evidence to present to the Los Angeles County District Attorney, and prosecutors have not yet announced whether they will file formal charges.
- The case has drawn national attention because Wade is the eldest son of Hall of Famer Dwyane Wade, the alleged victim’s identity has been kept private, and any legal or career consequences will depend on the DA’s review and potential court proceedings.
