Teresa Giudice, who famously flipped her lid (and a banquet table) on her
Real Housewives of New Jersey co-star Danielle Staub in a heated argument about Staub's criminal past, is having some legal troubles of her own, thanks to her husband's participation in a bar fight.
Radar Online reports that Teresa's husband, Joe, was detained by police in the Dominican Republic along with cast mate Caroline's sons,
Albie Manzo and
Chris Manzo, and the boys' roommate, Gregory Bennett.
After his clan accidentally spilled champagne on fellow bar patrons, a confrontation began, during which Joe Giudice allegedly hit one customer with a glass and beat another. The two men on the receiving end of the beatdown received minor lacerations in addition to one man's arm being fractured and the other man receiving a fractured leg. Chris, Albie and Gregory were allegedly protecting the women in the bar from the fight when they were detained.
A police representative said of the incident, "Usually when there's a fight we take one guy, but this time we took everybody."
While no charges were filed against the involved parties, who came to a verbal agreement, Radar sources say that Teresa and Joe Giudice remained in the Dominican Republic under supervision by their hotel for three days after the rest of their clan flew back to the Garden State.
