Djimon Hounsou told cops his baby mama hit him in the face after he told her to vacate his Atlanta townhouse … and she’s since been arrested for assault.
According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Djimon went to police back in December and claimed his ex-girlfriend Riza Simpson, with whom he shares two children, struck his face with a closed fist after he tried to kick her out of a residence he owns.
The Atlanta Police Department says Djimon told cops their kids were upstairs in the house when their mother allegedly hit their father … and police say Djimon told them the children didn’t see the alleged assault, but may have heard it.
Fast forward to Friday … APD executed an arrest warrant at the same home and took Simpson into custody for simple assault and obstruction for allegedly providing false information when confronted by officers … both misdemeanors.
Cops say Simpson’s kids were with her when she got busted … and officers say they heard the children crying in the background when they banged on the front door.
We’ve reached out to Simpson and Djimon’s reps for comment … so far, no word back.
