Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler has been questioned by police in Florida after his girlfriend Erin Brady was involved in a nightclub brawl.

The couple were enjoying an evening out at trendy Hollywood, Florida nightspot Pangea on Saturday (08Dec07) when Brady allegedly started a fight with a Seminole Indian woman.

A witness tells New York Post gossip column PageSix, "A woman from the tribe was trying to take a picture of Steven Tyler. Steven's girlfriend was coming back, from the restroom. Apparently, Erin got in the way of the picture or something, and some words were exchanged.

"Next thing everyone knows, the two girls are going at it. Scratching, hair-pulling, hitting. It lasted about six seconds, then security broke it up. Steven got up to try to pull them apart, but it happened so fast, he really didn't have time to do anything. Security was right on top of it."

Seminole Police Department arrived at the club around 4am and questioned both Tyler and his girlfriend for around an hour before releasing them.

The couple had been at the fashionable venue to attend the after-party of the Bikers Bash, an annual motorcycle event in Broward County.

A representative for Pangea nightclub says, "Nothing like a catfight and an aging rock legend to make an evening entertaining." (LR/WNWCPS/TN)
