Officers Patrick Cavalieri and David McAndrews were arrested Tuesday for aggravated assault, simple assault, criminal conspiracy and reckless endangerment, TMZ.com reported.

Authorities told the Web site the officers were off-duty last year when they went to the house where the reality show was being taped and started banging on the door.

The officer guarding the house was allegedly assaulted when he tried to stop them, police said.

Both officers have been suspended for 30 days with the intent to dismiss, a department spokesman said.
