Hill is accused of chasing and grabbing a child who he noticed was involved in a fight with his 10-year-old son around 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 19, authorities said.

Minor injuries were reported in the incident.
An arrest warrant for Hill was issued before he was eventually arrested on Oct. 22.
He was charged with abduction, assault, and battery, and contributing to the delinquency of a minor, authorities said.
His court date is pending and the bond was not available.
