He's said to have got into an argument with a woman at a restaurant in Burbank, California, where his estranged wife and son were said to be eating.
According to reports, the dispute at the restaurant got louder which is said to have led to enforcement officers being called.
Police did not clarify whether the woman involved was his wife - who filed for legal separation from Bam in February - or not.

Earlier this year, Bam spoke about his health issues of late.
Talking to former Jackass co-star Steve-O on his Wild Ride podcast, Bam described how he had been "basically pronounced dead" following four seizures in which he swallowed blood.
He claimed each of his seizures lasted about 10 and 20 minutes and said he bit his tongue during the last one which led to complications as he began swallowing his blood.
Bam said: "I bit my tongue so hard it was like nearly falling off, it got so swollen and puffy it wouldn't fit in my mouth and I was drinking the infected blood which gave me pneumonia as well."
