Former child star Frankie Muniz got into an intense fight with his girlfriend — in which he allegedly held a loaded gun to his head and later punched her, according to a police report obtained by TMZ.

A Friday report filed in Phoenix, Ariz. states that the Malcolm in the Middle star, now 25, got into a heated argument with girlfriend Elycia Turnbow over “prior relationships.”

The report reads that Muniz “grabbed a gun and held it to his head, possibly with the intent of committing suicide.” After a short visit to the hospital, Muniz returned home, and the couple began arguing again — in which, the police file says, Muniz “punched” Turnbow and “threw her into a wall.”

Cops later found a loaded gun at their home, which they have impounded. Both Muniz and Turnbow were charged with disorderly conduct. Cops warned the couple that they could face jail time if another violent incident occurs.

Of the incident, a rep for the couple tells UsMagazine.com in a statement: “Frankie and Elycia had an argument a few days ago. The police were called to the residence. A gun played no part in the argument and was voluntarily given to the police for safekeeping. There were no bruises and neither left the residence. He was not suicidal. She was not assaulted. They have been together since the incident; are still together and are moving forward with their lives and with their relationship.”
