Thanksgiving Brawl: Halle Berry’s Ex and Fiancé fights dirty (-; draws blood)

Halle Berry’s ex, Gabriel Aubry has been arrested for battery following a 'brutal' Thanksgiving Day brawl with Olivier Martinez.

The model, who is the father of Halle Berry's four-year-old daughter  Nahla,  reportedly attacked the actress' French fiance Olivier on Thursday morning when he was dropping the child back at Halle's house - but came off worse in the fight.

Police were called to the home and Gabriel was taken to hospital for his injuries after suffering a broken rib, bruises to the face and a possible more serious head injury, TMZ reports.

Olivier has a possible broken hand and neck injuries. He arrived at the same Los Angeles hospital for treatment as Gabriel around an hour after him, according to the report.

The drama went down inside Halle's home at around 10am after Gabriel dropped off their daughter Nahla in a custodial handover.

Martinez apparently approached Aubry and said: 'We have to move on,' - a reference to the recent custody battle which blocked Halle from moving to France with Nahla. But Aubry responded by allegedly pushing Martinez and throwing a punch at his face.

In another twist, a judge has just issued an emergency protective order - meaning Gabriel has to stay 100 yards away from Halle, Olivier and Nahla.

Martinez, who has apparently become increasingly bitter during the custody battle, is said to be keen to press charges, TMZ reports.
