He did shove me, and unfortunately I bruised my shoulder."But come on: He's 5 feet tall and 100 pounds all wet. And I kick box. He could never harm me if he tried."Spitz spent the night in jail and was released early Thursday afternoon.The couple, along with their 7-year-old twins, was spotted at Zoo Miami this afternoon, according to GossipExtra.com.Dan Spitz is a born-again Christian and Messianic Jew and in interviews has frequently cited his faith as an influential component to his life.Spitz took part in the reunion of ANTHRAX's classic lineup in 2005 and 2006 but left the band after ANTHRAX's most recent split with singer Joey Belladonna.
