The photos taken Saturday evening come less than 12 hours after the actor’s arrest.
In the pictures, the ‘Love Craft Country’ star is spotted wearing a long black coat and black pants and is hidden under his mask, ball cap, and the umbrella.
In one photo, the actor is surrounded by several security guards and police officers as he walks out towards the street to leave the courthouse.
The situation behind Majors’ release is unknown at this time.
DailyMail.com reached out to NYC courthouse officials for information but did not hear back by the time of publication.
While speaking with police, the woman told police she and Majors got into an argument and he proceeded to ‘attack her.’ The nature of their relationship is currently unknown.
According to a source who spoke with TMZ, the victim had visible injuries on her body, including a ‘laceration behind her ear, redness and marks to her face.’
The actor was cuffed and taken to jail right away, as police ‘felt there was enough evidence for probable cause.’
Following the altercation the alleged victim was taken to a local hospital and is currently in stable condition.
Cops were called to the scene at 11.14am near the intersection of West 22nd Street and 8th Avenue in the Chelsea area of Manhattan.
‘A preliminary investigation determined that a 33-year-old male was involved in a domestic dispute with a 30 year-old female,’ an NYPD statement read.
‘The victim informed police she was assaulted. Officers placed the 33-year-old male into custody without incident,’ the statement sent to DailyMail.com continued.
