Adam Levine becomes victim of vicious, 'unfounded' domestic abuse claim

Adam Levine's name was dragged through the mud recently after someone falsely accused the singer of physically abusing his wife and infant child.

TMZ noted that someone called the LAPD alleging that Levine not only hit his wife, Behati Prinsloo, but also his one-month-old daughter, Dusty Rose.  However, once officials from the department's juvenile division went to visit the couple's home and conducted interviews with them, they determined that the report was "unfounded."

Levine has not addressed the bogus claim and likely figures it's best not to waste any more time on false allegations.

The 37-year-old Maroon 5 frontman and his Victoria's Secret model wife tied the knot 2014 and welcomed their daughter on Sept. 22.
