Halle Berry's ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubrey has been arrested, after a 'brutal fight' with the actress's fiance, Olivier Martinez.
The brawl took place outside Halle's Hollywood home, as Aubrey dropped their daughter Nahla off on Thanksgiving morning.
Reports suggest the fight broke out after Olivier asked to speak to Gabriel about the ongoing custody dispute between him and Halle.
And it soon turned nasty.
'Olivier blocked [Gabriel's punch] and the punch struck him in the shoulder instead... Gabriel then pushed Olivier to the ground, a struggle ensued, ending when Olivier pinned Gabriel to the ground,' one source told gossip website TMZ.

Both men were taken to hospital, with Gabriel Aubrey treated for a broken rib and bruises to the face an hour before Olivier Martinez was treated at the same hospital for neck injuries and a possible broken hand.
According to repots, Aubrey is due in court to answer the charges on December 13.
The fight comes after Gabriel petitioned against Halle Berry's plans to move to France with her fiance - arguing it would give him limited access to their daughter.
Halle's camp argued back that Nahla would live a quieter life in France, due to the strict laws on paparazzi.
