Senator Patrick Brazeau could stay in police custody overnight, CBC News has learned, after he was arrested following an alleged domestic assault and removed from the Conservative Party's caucus.

Brazeau, who has weathered several controversies since his appointment in 2009, will continue to sit in the Senate as an Independent.

Police said Thursday charges have not yet been laid against a man arrested at Brazeau's home in Gatineau, Que., across the river from Ottawa, and the investigation is ongoing.

CBC News learned Brazeau was arrested at 9:10 a.m. ET Thursday at his residence after a call to 911.
