Brittney Taylor, a star of “Love & Hip Hop: New York,” was detained after it was claimed she beat the father of her children with a baseball bat.
Security personnel told TMZ that Brittney and Afeez, the father of her 2-year-old and 8-month-old children, had a physical altercation earlier this month. After a warrant for her arrest was issued, she turned herself in last week.
The alleged assault happened after Afeez traveled to New York to visit his children, even though he had been keeping his distance because of a history of tension with Brittney.

When he and his mother were leaving the apartment with the kids, he ignored something Brittney said, which led to the incident.
In the criminal complaint obtained by TMZ, Afeez told cops Brittney punched him in the face while his kids were present. Afeez then left the residence, but cops say Brittney followed him out with the bat, hitting him and leaving him with a laceration and significant facial bleeding.
Afeez ended up going to the hospital, getting stitches for a cut above his eye. She’s now been charged with two counts of assault, one count of endangering the welfare of a child, and one count of criminal possession of a weapon.
