Anti-Trump comedian Tom Arnold (shown above right) was reportedly involved in a physical altercation with “Apprentice” producer Mark Burnett and his wife, Roma Downey (above left).

Arnold, who is hosting the anti-Trump show “The Search for the Trump Tapes,” has claimed it was Burnett who attacked him at a pre-Emmys party, while Downey has taken to Twitter to share an alleged injury from the scuffle.

The 70th annual Emmy Awards will air live tonight — Monday night — at 8 p.m. Eastern time.

The event takes place in Los Angeles.

Arnold took to Twitter first to say that Burnett attacked him at the party — and that the Los Angeles Police Department had been contacted.

“Mark Burnett just went apes*** & choked me at this huge Emmy party then he ran away with his torn Pink shirt & missing gold chain. I’m waiting for LAPD,” wrote Arnold.

After Downey posted a photo of a bruise on her hand that she claimed came from the incident, Arnold called her a liar.

He said he was suing for defamation.

“Got this bruise tonight when Tom Arnold tried to ambush my husband Mark and me at a charity event. Is your TV show worth it Tom? Please stop,” Downey, who has produced Christian-friendly projects, including “The Bible” and “Ben-Hur,” wrote on social media.

Arnold, in return, wrote on social media, “Bulls***. You lie your crazy husband attacked me you psycho. I’m filing police report & suing you for defamation,” Tom Arnold added.

Downey has not tweeted anything further about the incident, but Arnold has been saying plenty through Twitter.

The comedian claimed that Downey knocked a phone out of a filmmaker’s hand — and that Burnett choked him.

“Roma knocked Bryan Fogel’s phone out of his hand after Mark Burnett chocked [sic] me. Bryan came with me. He won the Oscar this year for his amazing documentary ‘Icarus.’ He has tape,” Arnold said.

The reference to a “tape” concerns Arnold’s new show, on which the comedian seeks out audio tapes that could destroy the president’s position in the White House.

He has claimed that he’s heard of behind-the-scenes tapes from “The Apprentice” during which Trump says racist things.

Burnett, who produced “Apprentice” and has kept up a relationship with Trump, has not publicly spoken about the incident with Arnold.

The comedian also posted a bit of an alleged phone call between himself and Burnett; in it, the producer refuses to speak to Arnold.

Arnold also claims actor Kevin Bacon is a witness to his side of the story.

Arnold’s show debuts on Tuesday this week on Vice — and the first episode (surprise, surprise) reportedly focuses on Burnett and Trump’s time with “The Apprentice.”
