Gabriel Aubry, Olivier Martinez In Hospital After Brawl



As tensions continue to build following this month's court decision denying Halle Berry the right to relocate her daughter to France, the situation came to a head Thursday morning at the actress's California home.

A physical altercation occurred between Berry's ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubry and fiancé Olivier Martinez as Aubry was dropping 4½-year-old Nahla off at her mother's home to celebrate Thanksgiving, TMZ reports.

According to the site, Martinez, 46, approached Aubry, 36, to speak with him and the two began to brawl. Both men were hurt – Martinez may have a broken hand and neck injuries, while Aubry suffered a broken rib, contusions to the face and a possible head injury – and are being treated at the hospital.

Aubry was reportedly place under citizen's arrest for battery and is required to stay 100 yards away from Berry, Martinez and Nahla as the result of an emergency protective order, TMZ reports.

Story developing...

Gabriel Aubry was arrested Thanksgiving morning after a melee at Halle Berry's house, which sent both Gabriel and Halle's fiance Olivier Martinez to the hospital ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Gabriel showed up at Halle's doorstep with Nahla for a custodial hand-off. We're told Gabriel was inside the house when Olivier walked up to him and said, "We have to move on."

According to witnesses, Gabriel then pushed Olivier and threw a punch at his face, but Olivier blocked it and the punch struck him in the shoulder instead. We're told Gabriel then pushed Olivier to the ground, and Olivier cold-cocked him in the face, and a struggle ensued, ending with Olivier pinning Gabriel to the ground.

In the struggle, Gabriel suffered a broken rib, contusions on his face, and possibly a more serious head injury. Olivier may have broken his hand and suffered neck injuries as well. There are conflicting accounts as to whether Gabriel was rendered unconscious in the fight.

Police were called and Olivier made a citizen's arrest for battery against Gabriel. Gabriel was escorted to the ER and, ironically, Olivier went to the same ER an hour later. The two were just down the hall from each other.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... a judge has issued an emergency protective order, which requires Gabriel to stay 100 yards awayfromHalle, Olivier,and Nahla.

And finally, there's this ... specifics about the argument between Gabrieland Olivier are sketchy because they were trash talking each other in French.

It's not Thanksgiving/Christmas/whatever major holiday you please in my house unless someone starts throwing punches or breaks down crying.

This is one typical TV family stereotype I never fully understood because holidays in my house are relatively... boring. We eat together, us cousins go off somewhere and watch TV(either TLC specials, cartoons, etc) and the adults stay upstairs and talk about adult things.

Sometimes there is drama SURROUNDING the holidays, like my aunt being a bitch and not inviting my uncle (despite it only being an extra two people but thats ~too much work) but on the actual days, eh.

Your house sounds like mine as a kid. My father got roaring drunk every Christmas. Smashed some dishes. And then of course, proceeded to cry.

I have currently locked myself in my room so I don't end up punching my brother's wife. I love the holidays.

Yep. That's how it was growing up. Apparently, I missed all the fun this year since it was in Nevada and I'm in California. Thank goodness for having to work.

It used to be that way in our house growing up between my siblings. We've broken the cycle by cutting out the toxic siblings. We now have functional holidays and always reminisce and thankful that we don't invite that toxic shit into our lives anymore.

If my mom had it her way we'd all be together but we all stopped going to her Thanksgiving dinners because of all the bullshit. It's been about 10 years now we have been Holiday-drama free and plan to keep it that way.

Parents don't understand just because we are blood doesn't mean we all HAVE to tolerate bullshit for the sake of "Family".

This is why I limit my holiday gatherings to 4 people.

for the longest time my mother and I didn't have any extended family in the country we were living in and so we celebrated together and it was always beautiful so I never knew what people were talking about when they said the holidays are a special kind of hell. Now for the last 4 years or so we've been having big family celebrations and OH, do I know what you mean.

I'm so thankful I've never experienced that. But I really feel for people who do.. everyone deserves to enjoy the holidays, not be stressed out about bullshit. It helps that growing up, it was only me, my sister, and my parents. Now we'll have a few friends or extended family over, but it's always chill.
