According to police records, Dane Rashford, soccer agent and brother of Marcus Rashford, was arrested in Miami on assault charges.
Dane was arrested in Miami Beach on October 20 and his bail was set at $1,500.
The charge was registered as assault on October 24 but was further specified as domestic violence, as first reported by The Telegraph.
Dane is a director of DN May Sports Management, which lists Rashford as a client, although the striker is managed directly by his other brother, Dwaine Maynard.
Dane, 31, is no longer in prison but is due back in court for a hearing on November 27.

According to Miami-Dade County police records, Dane’s bail was paid by Chantelle Maynard a week after his arrest.
He was also given a stay-away order before the trial, which prohibits contact with the alleged victim.
Daysi Vega-Mendez, the assistant district attorney for Miami Dade County, told The Telegraph that they were not sure whether Dane was still in the United States.
“The case is still active, I have not been able to reach the victim at the moment,” they said. “Our office is trying to reach the British embassy because we need permission to speak to the victim.”
“I’m not sure if they’re still in the United States or if they’ve left the country.” From what I understand, they were on vacation. Technically, you are not allowed to leave the country once the charges are filed against you. If a person is given a bond when he leaves, he is giving up that bond.
Rashford grew up in the Wythenshawe area of Manchester with brothers Dwaine, Dane and sisters Chantelle and Claire.
He also has a half-sister named Tamara.
News of the arrest broke minutes after Man United’s 4-3 defeat to Copenhagen in the Champions League, in which Rashford was sent off in the first half of the game.
The striker tried to shield the ball, but caught an opponent with a high foot and received a straight red card in the 42nd minute.

From there, United quickly relinquished their 2-0 lead and went into the break tied before ultimately losing in the Danish capital.
Rashford was in the headlines last week when United manager Erik ten Hag told him his decision to go to the nightclub after the Manchester derby defeat was unacceptable.
Mail Sport previously revealed that Rashford spent the night at Chinawhite nightclub in Manchester to celebrate his 26th birthday following his side’s 3-0 defeat to City on Sunday.
Ten Hag said: “I spoke to him about it.” It is unacceptable. He apologized and that was it. For us it is an internal matter.’
The Dutch coach added: “He made a mistake but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t fit in. I see him every day in training, I know what he does.”
