MTV Teen Mom Arrested & Jailed for On-Air Assault and Neglect

Amber Portwood, a 20-year-old teen mom MTV star surrendered to police Monday afternoon after being charged with three felonies: two counts of domestic battery and one count of neglect of a dependent. In addition, the "Teen Mom" star faces one misdemeanor count of domestic battery -- all stemming from footage aired on MTV which showed her repeatedly punching and hitting then-fiance Gary Shirley, the father of her toddler, Leah.

The reality television star is now behind bars in Indiana with bail set at $5,000.
