Singer and actor Ray J, whose real name is Willie Ray Norwood Jr., was arrested on Thanksgiving on suspicion of making criminal threats, according to Los Angeles police.

Officers responded to a call early Thursday at 3:55 a.m., reporting assault with a deadly weapon and domestic violence. Norwood, 44, was taken into custody and later released on $50,000 bond. Multiple firearms were recovered at the scene, and no injuries were reported.
