STEELY DAN frontman Donald Fagen has been charged with assault and harassment following an alleged domestic dispute with his wife.

The rocker, 67, was arrested on Monday and accused of forcibly shoving his wife Libby into a marble window frame at their New York City home.

According to the criminal complaint, obtained by the New York Post, Fagen reportedly pushed her, "causing her to fall onto the frame and suffer bruising and swelling to her right arm, as well as substantial pain".

Police claim the incident left Libby, 69, with a bruised arm.

FAGAN was arraigned in Manhattan Criminal Court on Tuesday and released without bail. He was also ordered to stay away from his wife after the judge issued an order of protection against him.

The singer has yet to comment on the charges.
