    Shahs of Sunset star Mike Shouhed is facing 13 criminal charges following his domestic violence arrest in March.

    Early Tuesday, TMZ reported that the Los Angeles City Attorney has charged Shouhed with several misdemeanors, including domestic violence, battery, and unlawfully attempting to dissuade a witness. New court documents obtained by TMZ reveal Shouhed was also charged with criminal storage of a loaded firearm and possession of an assault weapon.

    Shouhed was arrested in March for allegedly getting physical with a woman. The police never revealed the victim's identity, and it's unknown if Shouhed's fiancé Paulina Ben-Cohen was involved in the dispute.

    Two weeks after Shouhed's arrest, Shahs of Sunset, Bravo's reality series about a group of Persian Americans living in Beverley Hills, was canceled after nine seasons. Shouhed, a real estate agent in Los Angeles, appeared in all nine seasons of the series.

    Select seasons of Shahs of Sunset are streaming on Hulu.
