P. Diddy was arrested by UCLA campus police Monday at 12:30 p.m. PT after an altercation involving a kettlebell at the school’s Acosta Athletic Training Complex, according to a university release. He is being charged with one felony count of assault with a deadly weapon. No one was seriously harmed, according to the release.

“I’m thankful that our staff showed the level of professionalism that they did in handling this situation,” UCLA football coach Jim Mora said in a statement. “This is an unfortunate incident for all parties involved. While UCPD continues to review this matter, we will let the legal process run its course and refrain from further comment at this time.”

Diddy should be transferred to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Inmate Reception Center tonight, according to the release.

[TMZ reports](http://www.tmz.com/2015/06/22/diddy-arrested-fight-ucla-football-coach-justin/ "undefined") Diddy (aka Sean Combs) allegedly targeted strength and conditioning coach Sal Alosi.
