Brad Pitt is reportedly being investigated for child abuse.
According to TMZ, who first broke the news that Angelia Jolie was filing for divorce from Brad Pitt earlier this week, are now reporting that the actor is under investigation for child abuse.
Brad is said to be under investigation by the LAPD and L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services for “allegedly getting verbally abusive and physical with his children”.
Brad and Angelina are parents to six kids – three biological and three adopted from Asia and Africa.
The news comes after it was reported that Angelina filed for divorce due to his parenting methods, after an incident that took place on a flight last week.

According to TMZ, Brad was drinking on a flight, and later went “wild, screaming and getting physical with the kids”.
After the plane landed, Brad reportedly tried to drive off in one of the fuel trucks – which caused an on-looker to notify the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services.
TMZ have been told that Brad and Angelina have already been interviewed, and that the children will also be interviewed in due course.
Meanwhile, a source has said, “He takes the matter very seriously and says he did not commit any abuse of his children. It’s unfortunate that people involved are continuing to present him in the worst possible light.”
