I’m sure everyone remembers the first season of Jersey Shore where Ronnie knocks out that random guy…(ok maybe not!) Ronnie was indicted by a grand jury today in Ocean County on an assault charge that stemmed from the knock out blow.

Ronnie was charged with one count of third-degree assault … punishable by up to five years in state prison. The alleged incident went down September 4, 2009 in Seaside Heights, NJ.

Reason it took so long to charge him was because both sides were trying to reach a plea agreement, but couldn’t. We’re told a plea still could happen down the road.

The guy on the receiving end of the alleged punch, Stephen Izzo, has a pending lawsuit against Ronnie, MTV, and the producers of the show.
