According to El Mundo, Nunes was arrested for allegedly stealing a phone after the victim tried to take a photo of him in a nightclub toilet.
The incident occurred at 5.30am as the report states Nunes was in a 'very angry' mood as he refused to give the phone back to the alleged victim.

The 26-year-old ended up in the cells of the Arganzuela police station. He notified his lawyer who began the process to speed up his release.
On the same day, he left the police station without being brought before a court as it was a crime of theft, per the report.
However, a new report from the Manchester Evening News claims Nunes was NOT arrested and 'police took no action' when responding to a call regarding the alleged incident.

It is understood that the incident has been 'exaggerated' and the Man City player only pushed the phone out of the man's hand after asking him to stop taking pictures.
Police were called but did not arrest the footballer, nor will he face any further action in relation to the incident.
Nunes was in Madrid for a short break with friends, having not been selected by Portugal for their Nations League fixtures.
This season, he has played six games across all competitions, scoring one goal.
