Police are investigating an alleged altercation between "Bachelor" franchise creator, Mike Fleiss, and his wife after she accused him of attacking her at their Hawaii home over the Fourth of July weekend.
In a statement to Fox News on Wednesday, the Kauai Police Department said the incident "remains under police investigation" but no arrests have been made.
Laura Fleiss, 31, who is approximately 10 weeks pregnant, filed for a temporary domestic violence restraining order on Tuesday in Los Angeles, alleging her husband "demanded that I get an abortion" while at their home in Kauai and got physical with her.
She also claimed in the court docs obtained by Fox News that during their marriage Fleiss, 55, has "frequently been verbally abusive towards" her.

In "recent weeks, he has become enraged, due to the fact I am pregnant with our second child," she claimed.
Reps for Fleiss did not return Fox News' request for comment.
According to the court docs, Laura claimed that on July 4 Fleiss told her: "I am cutting you off financially Monday morning; You are paying for everything with your money; Next time I see you, I don't want to see your stomach;' and 'You have a choice, you can choose. Have an abortion or go back to Wisconsin, but you are not taking Ben.'"

She stated in the report that he vocalized many times that he did not want to have a second child. They are already parents to a 4-year-old boy, Ben. "Mike, however, being 55-years old, did not want to have more than one child together," revealed the 2012 Miss America.

He "grabbed my body, forcibly pinned me up against the wall and held me there. After I broke free, he continued to use his arms and hands to aggressively push me away from him as he walked outside the door, still not returning my phone. Then he walked towards his pick-up truck parked outside in our driveway, shouting 'I'm going to punch your face in.'"
Laura was granted temporary legal and physical custody of their four-year-old son Ben.
According to the docs, Laura was granted a temporary restraining order until their next court date on August 6. Fleiss must stay 100 yards away from her, their son Ben and the family's home in Hanalei. In addition, Laura was granted legal and physical custody of Ben and the family dog; Fleiss is not allowed to visit his son.
