Davis was Saturday released after posting a $1,750 bond. While working as a CIA contractor in Pakistan, Davis shot two men dead in Lahore on January 27, saying they were trying to rob him. The incident sparked a controversy over whether his status gave Davis diplomatic immunity, causing a stand-off in U.S.-Pakistan relations amid intense international media focus on the issue.

In Saturday's incident Davis had been arguing with a 50-year-old man about the parking space when things turned physical. Reports said the injured man was treated and released at the scene and Davis is scheduled to appear in court on Monday.
