Bronson Farr/Bravo via Getty (2) Police responded to a call at Aaron Phypers' Calabasas residence on Aug. 3 as he and estranged wife Denise Richards continue with divorce proceedings Authorities tell PEOPLE they did not find evidence of a crime, and Richards' attorney says she was not in violation of the restraining order she has against Phypers amid abuse allegations The attorney further accused Phypers of putting down one of her dogs, though a source close to him denies that claim Denise RichardsandAaron Phypershad a run-in with law enforcement over the weekend amid their ongoing divorce and hertemporary restraining orderagainst him. PEOPLE can confirm that the Lost Hills Sheriff's Department responded to a call at around 4:40 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 3 at the Calabasas home Phypers, his parents and his brother currently live in. Upon arriving at the scene, authorities "did not have any evidence that a crime occurred." Arnold Jerocki/Getty In a statement to PEOPLE, Berman says that the 54-year-old, who was granted a TRO against Phypers after making allegations of domestic violence throughout their relationship, "did not violate a restraining order" by going to the property. "On August 3, 2025, after confirming that Mr. Phypers was not present in her home, Ms. Richards entered the home to retrieve her dogs after learning that Mr. Phypers had put down one of her other dogs without her knowledge or permission," Berman claims. However, a source close to Phypers tells PEOPLE that this is "100 percent, absolutely false." The insider further alleges that Richards was screaming and banging on the door of the home to get inside, and when Phypers heard her voice, he left through a side door. "I don't live in our house,"she revealed. "Aaron's mom and dad and his brother, they were gonna stay for a few months; It's been over three years." "I needed some space, so I rented a townhouse, and then I rented another one and another one," she continued. "So I have three of them. One's an office, one's a studio, one's for Lola and Eloise and for us to sleep in. And then when Aaron and I want privacy, we sleep in the studio. So, we're all over the place." In that same episode, she and Phypers discussed their marriage, and Richards claimed she was "never getting divorced again" after her tumultuous split from exCharlie Sheenin 2006. "Even if we hate each other, I'm not gonna f------ get divorced," she said. "No, we'll just have different homes or something," Phypers added. "But we're not gonna hate each other." "We have enough homes, but yes, I agree," Richards quipped. Charles Sykes/Bravo via Getty Later that month, sheaccused her ex of physical abusein court documents that included photos of her with a black eye. "Aaron would frequently violently choke me, violently squeeze my head with both hands, tightly squeeze my arms, violently slap me in my face and head, aggressively slam my head into the bathroom towel rack, threaten to kill me, hold me down with his knee on my back to the point where I would have to plead with him to get off me so that he would not kill me and hack into my laptop and phone and download all of my text messages," Richards alleged in her filing. "Aaron regularly threatened to 'break my jaw' and would cry, beg me to stay, and promise to get help — none of which ever happened." Leon Bennett/Getty "Let me be unequivocally clear: I have never physically or emotionally abused Denise — or anyone,"he stated. "These accusations are completely false and deeply hurtful. Denise and I, like many couples, have faced our share of challenges, but any suggestion of abuse is categorically untrue. I have always tried to approach our marriage with love, patience, and respect." https://people.com/app/scene?sceneId=9de86c07-a15a-409e-8382-c1ab68eaf839&shortlink=kz7l4cuf&c=People.com%20Homepage%20Fourth%20Wall%20Revise%20Download%20070725&pid=People.com&af_xp=custom&source_caller=ui Shecited multiple interviewsPhypers has given recently, in which he stated that he had photos and text messages proving Richards wasallegedly having an affair and that she had allegedly physically abused him(whichBerman called "false"). "We have warned Mr. Phypers in writing not to disseminate any information from Ms. Richards' stolen cell phone and laptop but he continues to do so," Berman said. Phypers disputed Berman's statement at the time, telling PEOPLE, "Nothing was stolen, and nothing is missing — except, perhaps, Ms. Richards' moral compass."
