ABC News
Marvel star Jonathan Majors was accused of assaulting his then-girlfriend in a for-hire SUV in March.
Marvel star Jonathan Majors was found guilty of one count of third-degree assault and one count of second-degree harassment, but acquitted of two other counts of assault and aggravated harassment in a split verdict Monday.
The verdict came after about five hours of deliberations over portions of three days.
Majors, 34, was charged with assault and aggravated harassment, all misdemeanors, stemming from a March altercation with his then-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari, in New York City.
The mixed verdict signals the jury believed Majors recklessly assaulted his ex-girlfriend, but did not intentionally do so.
The mixed verdict also suggests the jury did not believe Majors intentionally committed aggravated harassment inside the SUV, but did believe he harassed her outside the vehicle by picking her off the ground and throwing her back inside.
