Federline, 41, filed a police report following a heated argument between Sean Preston and his grandfather, 67, at Jamie’s condo on August 24, a law enforcement source told Us. “Sean Preston felt unsafe and locked himself into a room. Jamie broke into the room and shook Sean Preston,” the insider said. “Fortunately, Britney did the right thing and took her boys to safety and away from her father. The whole incident was very upsetting to her and her boys. Kevin was and still is furious.”

Following the altercation, the DJ was granted a temporary restraining order against Jamie that prohibits him from coming near Sean and his brother, Jayden James, 12, for three years.
