Police in Gatineau confirm they have arrested a man at the home of former Conservative Sen. Patrick Brazeau.

Brazeau has been kicked out of the Tory caucus after allegations surfaced that he was involved in a domestic violence dispute.

The police have yet to identify the man arrested and have not laid any charges.

They will not comment on the condition of the victim and they say their investigation continues.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper says Brazeau was removed from caucus following reports of what Harper called serious events.

Harper says he expects the matter will be dealt with through the courts.
