'Love & Hip Hop Hollywood's' Young Berg Arrested for Reportedly Choking Girlfriend Masika Kalysha in Violent NYC Altercation

Love & Hip Hop Hollywood star Young Berg is waking up in a New York City jail cell this morning after an overnight altercation with his girlfriend turned extremely violent. Fans of the show know Berg has been linked to costar Masika Kalysha and, according to a photo posted on her Instagram showing a plane ticket to NYC, it looks like she is likely the victim of Berg's wrath. The violent altercation ultimately resulted in an "obstruction of breathing" charge.

According to a TMZ report, Berg got into a fight with his girlfriend at the Gershwin Hotel and grabbed her by the neck. He then threw her on the floor, dragged her by her hair and finally hit her in the face. NYC police arrived on the scene to find Berg's girlfriend with obvious bruises, complaining of pain. She was taken to the hospital and Berg is currently in custody on that obstruction charge.

Berg has been prominently featured on the first season of Love & Hip Hop Hollywood, partly because of fellow castmate Hazel E's one-sided obsession with him. Kalysha had tried to be friends with both of them, but in the most recent episode it was clear that rocking with Berg made more sense at the time of filming. We have to wonder if she is regretting giving up her friend for this guy now.

This is hardly the first arrest for someone connected to Love & Hip Hop. In fact, the franchise seems to favor violent personalities — like Joseline Hernandez, who currently has a warrant out for her beatdown of Althea Eaton at a recent reunion show filming — because the drama they bring keeps viewers hooked.

If Kalysha was the victim last night, do you think she will speak out today? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below.
