Brad Pitt plane altercation under evaluation by the FBI

Brad PittThe FBI says it is gathering information about an alleged incident involving Brad Pitt and his kids aboard a private plane last week.

The bureau issued a statement saying it is evaluating whether or not to launch an investigation on the matter.

“In response to your inquiry regarding allegations within the special aircraft jurisdiction of the United States; specifically, an aircraft carrying Mr. Brad Pitt and his children, the FBI is continuing to gather facts and will evaluate whether an investigation at the federal level will be pursued,” the statement read.

TMZ first reported that a violent incident occurred on a private plane last Wednesday (September 14) involving Brad, his wife Angelina Jolie, and their six children. According to the report, a witness saw Brad intoxicated, yelling at his kids and also allegedly “getting physical” with them, which prompted the witness to contact the Los Angeles County Dept. of Children and Family Services.

Angelina filed for divorce from Brad on Monday, with reports citing the plane altercation as the reason. The actress is currently seeking sole physical custody of their children, asking the judge to allow Brad visitation rights.

According to a source at TMZ, Brad has denied abusing his children, saying he is taking the matter very seriously and is concerned that “people involved” are “continuing to present him in the worst possible light.”

With rumors and allegations swirling, tell us — what do YOU think happened on that flight?

    Can’t picture him being violent, but who knows what goes on in people’s personal lives? If he was, then good for Angie for getting him out. I can picture her being very protective of her kids.

    I think she can be very dominating , we all take care of our children and try to keep them safe , is she saying he is not of the same mindset ? Or is she just setting it up like that for the judge , I know a few women who claim same thing, for the reason to sway a judge or putting doubt into people’s minds , she wants her way and will do anything I think to get it , we all have raised our voices to our kids at one time or another that dosen’t mean we abuse them , I think there is two sides to every story , if she knowingly takes those kids to unsafe countries is that abuse ?

    I can’t see him being abusive to his kids or Angelina. If he was, knowing her, she would have divorced him long ago and they wouldn’t have been together this long.
    Remember how they got together,he was married to Jennifer Aniston at the time, she knew it, didn’t care, and went after what she wanted.
