It's all love in the Combs household.
Sean "Diddy" Combs and his son, Justin, broke their social media silence following the media mogul's arrest yesterday. Both took to Instagram to post a sweet father-son snapshot with a caption that proves it's all about the family.
The picture—which may or may not be a new photo, it wasn't clear—shows the famous father embracing his son as the two flash big smiles. Diddy's caption was simple, just a hashtag that read, "#FamilyFirst."
Meanwhile, Justin's caption shows that the UCLA football player is not at all embarrassed or angry by his dad's actions yesterday. In fact, he appreciates having someone who's got his back. "I thank God for having a father that's always there for me.. Love you pops!," he wrote.
Combs was booked yesterday evening on a felony charge at the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department Inmate Reception Center after being arrested for allegedly assaulting a UCLA football coach with a kettlebell.
According to NBC News Investigations, a source noted that the bail amount of $160,000 dropped to $50,000 from the time of the mogul's arrest to him being booked and released from the Los Angeles County jail. Diddy was charged with felony assault with a deadly weapon (a kettlebell). He was later also charged with two more counts of assault with a deadly weapon, making terrorist threats and battery.
"The various accounts of the events and charges that are being reported are wholly inaccurate. What we can say now is that any actions taken by Mr. Combs were solely defensive in nature to protect himself and his son," Combs' rep said in a statement to E! News.
"We are confident that once the true facts are revealed, the case will be dismissed."
Coach Sal Alosi has exhibited aggressive behavior in the past. Alosi became infamous for tripping Miami Dolphins defensive back Nolan Carroll during a Jets punt return in 2010 while he was a coach for New York.
Alosi was also arrested in 1999 while he was a 21-year-old junior at Hofstra, according to Newsday. Police said he was one of eight students who broke into a dorm room and assaulted three students.
"I'm thankful that our staff showed the level of professionalism that they did in handling this situation," head coach Jim Mora said in a statement released by UCPD. "This is an unfortunate incident for all parties involved. While UCPD continues to review this matter, we will let the legal process run its course and refrain from further comment at this time."
Alosi has not addressed the matter.Diddy is due to appear in court on July 13.
