TMZ was first to break the news after the website learned Glennon had filed the official court papers on Tuesday. He is requesting an emergency hearing to grant him full custody.
Portwood was arrested last Friday morning in Indianapolis. Based on reports from the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department, a dispatcher received a text in the early morning hours of Friday, indicating a life was in danger.
When police arrived on the scene, Glennon claimed Portwood was out of control during an argument, and she turned violent. She reportedly hit him several times with a shoe, while he was holding their young son. He also shared with the cops that it was not the first time she was violent or threatened violence.
Not long after Portwood’s arrest, her ex-boyfriend and father of her oldest child Gary Shirley Tweeted his thoughts and let followers know Leah was not home at the time of the incident.
