MTV reality star Ronnie Ortiz has been indicted by a grand jury in New Jersey following allegations of a violent altercation with another man in 2009.

The Jersey Shore star was charged with third-degree assault after a reported punch-up with Stephen Izzo in Seaside Heights, where the first season of the show was being filmed.

Ortiz was officially charged during a court hearing in Ocean County on Friday and he faces up to five years in a state prison if convicted, according to TMZ.com.

The TV star is also facing legal action from Izzo - he filed suit against Ortiz earlier this year.
