Michael Lohan has been arrested for alleged battery domestic violence.

The showbiz patriarch, father of troubled actress Lindsay Lohan, was taken into custody by police in Tampa, Florida, in the early hours of this morning after officers responded to reports of a fight in an apartment.

Before being booked into Hillsborough County Jail, Michael was taken to St. Joseph's hospital after complaining of chest pains when he was arrested.

It is understood that bail has not yet been set. Police have not yet identified the victim.

In March, 51-year-old Michael was arrested for allegedly assaulting Journalist Kate Major, with police reporting he had attempted to choke her and injured himself to prevent her calling for help.

Last July, Kate accused Michael of attacking her at their home in Southampton, New York, claiming he threw her off a chair and kicked her in the face during an argument.
