Aaron Hotchner may be taking a quick break from “Criminal Minds”.
According to Deadline, the American drama series actor, Thomas Gibson, has been suspended for one to two episodes following a physical altercation on set, in which the actor allegedly kicked the producer.

In addition to Gibson’s suspension from acting on the CBS show, the actor may also be vetoed from directing season 12, which is set to air on September 28. He has directed six episodes of “Criminal Minds” thus far.
While Gibson has been an original cast member — playing Special Agent Aaron Hotchner since the series debuted in 2005 — reports claim the actor’s future with the show remains under review.
Gibson has since responded to the allegations, telling TMZ, “There were creative differences on the set and a disagreement. I regret that it occurred. We all want to work together as a team to make the best show possible. We always have and we always will.”
