Vanilla Ice Arrested for Domestic Abuse

90s "Ice Ice Baby" musician Vanilla Ice was arrested Thursday for domestic battery in Palm Beach County, Florida.

Sheriffs sources tell TMZ.com that the rapper – born Robert Van Winkle — allegedly pushed his wife, Laura, after getting into a fight. (They have two children.)

Van Winkle — who was booked at 10:42 p.m. — is still in police custody. (See more celeb mugshots here.)

He is due in court Friday when a judge will determine whether the arrest was justified and whether he will be given a bond or be released on his own recognizance.

This isn’t Van Winkle’s first brush with the law.

In 2004, he was booked on a domestic battery charge.

The same year, he was fined $200 in in impounding fees when his pet wallaroo and goat escaped from his home and were picked up by animal control officers.
