Wendell Pierce attends a screening of HBO's 'Confirmation' during the 40th Annual Atlanta Film Festival in Atlanta, Georgia on April 3, 2016.

“I have confidence that the judicial process will work as it should”

The Wire actor Wendell Pierce, who was arrested Saturday and charged with battery at an Atlanta hotel where he was staying, said he regrets that the situation “escalated to the level that it did.”

Pierce commented on his arrest in a series of Tweets early Tuesday morning. Saturday’s altercation was sparked by a heated political discussion, according to a police report.

“I regret that what started as a civil political discussion escalated to the level that it did,” said Pierce, 52. “Although what has been reported thus far differs in important respects from what actually occurred, I have confidence that the judicial process will work as it should.”
