Sheriff's detectives arrested him on Wednesday. He was being held on bail of $6.29 million.

He produced Beyonce's hit single "Drunk in Love," which was awarded Grammys for Best R&B Song and Best R&B Performance in 2015.

Last year, a model and aspiring singer won a $15 million lawsuit in Los Angeles against Detail alleging rape and abuse.
