We spotted Abitbol sporting a busted eyebrow outside of Bar Lubitsch Saturday night and asked for his story.

He replied that, after snapping some pix of Vaughn and Drew Barrymore dining together inside the club with his wife's camera, Vaughn's bodyguard came up, demanded the camera, and then hit him in the eye when he protested!

Clearly, however, Abitbol was able to protect his private property from the bodyguard - his photos show Vaughn amid a gang of celebs, including Barrymore, Justin Long, and Vince's old Swingers running buddy Jon Favreau!

Unfortunately, Abitbol's evening still ended in a handcuffed ride in a squad car. Somehow, we doubt we've heard the last of this story!
