A spokesperson for Jackson could not immediately be reached for comment.

The Los Angeles District Attorney's Office also did not immediately respond to a request for more information, so it is not clear if Jackson has been officially charged in connection with the alleged incident.

Jackson played Zuri Ross on Jessie and its spin-off Bunk'd. In 2019, she released her book, Reach for the Skai: How to Inspire, Empower and Clapback and appeared on Dancing With the Stars in 2020.
