Police in Connecticut say Paul Simon and his wife, Edie Brickell, were arrested on disorderly conduct charges.

"On Saturday, April 26, 2014, at approximately 8:20 p.m., New Canaan officers responded to a location in New Canaan to investigate a Family Dispute," a police spokesperson said in a statement sent to FOX411. 

 

Police say they found probable cause to arrest both Simon and Brickell. 

A caller from the singers' home dialed 911 Saturday night and hung up, police chief Leon Krolikowski said at a news conference Monday. Officers who responded found minor injuries and believed it was a case of domestic violence, he said. He did not say who was injured.

Simon and Brickell, who have been married for more than two decades, were each given a misdemeanor summons and one of them agreed to leave and go to another location, Krolikowski said.

"There was aggressiveness on both sides," he said. "They're both victims and they have children involved and we're trying to be very cautious of that."

At Monday's hearing, Simon and Brickell each said the other was not a threat. Judge William J. Wenzel said he did not see a need for a protective order.

"We're going to go back home today," Simon said. "We're going to watch our son play baseball." 

Simon, 72, and Brickell, 47, were asked to return to court on May 16.

So does that mean they are Still Crazy after All These Years, or did she try to Take his Kodachrome Away? Or maybe the Boxer was playing?

Guess she doesn't Love him Like a Rock, or maybe she found 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover?

 

And I never even knew these two were paired up.

Yep, Paul Simon (You Can Call Me Al) of the famous duo as well as his own solo career. And Edie Brickell from the group with the name New Bohemians.
