Maroon 5 bassist Mickey Madden was arrested earlier this month on allegations of domestic violence. Well, now Madden has announced he’s taking a leave of absence from the band.
“I have some things that I need to deal with and address right now and so I have decided to take a leave of absence from Maroon 5 for the foreseeable future,” Madden tells “People” in a statement. “During this time, I do not want to be a distraction to my bandmates. I wish them the absolute best.”
Details of Madden’s arrest aren’t known. He is currently free on $50,000 bond.
