    Afterwards, police responded to a report of an assault, reportedly booking the French model, before releasing him on $20,000 bail.

    Andrew Smith, Commanding Officer, LAPD Media Relations and Community Affairs Group told People: He [Aubry] was booked for a private persons arrest for battery.'

    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.
