According to court documents obtained by TMZ, the 23-year-old actress said Prokop, 24, pinned her against a car during an argument and choked her while repeatedly calling her a "c***." In the document, Hyland said, "His grip was so tight that I could not breathe or speak. I was scared and in fear for my life."


In her affidavit, Hayland claimed that Prokop "relentlessly bombarded me with vile, threatening and emotionally disturbing texts and voice mails including his own suicide threats," after they ended their five-year relationship, TMZ reported.

According to the documents, Hyland's TV mom, Julie Bowen, witnessed Prokop's abusive behavior.


From TMZ:


In the docs, Hyland says she knew she was in an abusive relationship — and asked her TV mom Julie Bowen to come to her house to help "peacefully end the relationship."


Hyland says she had purchased a plane ticket to send Matthew back to his home in Texas — but when Matthew arrived to the home and saw Julie (along with others), he freaked out ... "ran outside into the backyard and began screaming."


Hyland says Prokop threw a lighter at her — and that's when Julie stepped in and told Sarah to get out of the house because she wasn't safe around Prokop.
