On June 13, 2016 Aubrey and another man were involved in a crash, and Aubrey, who was off-duty and driving his personal car, got out to confront the man. A criminal summons for Aubrey issued in September 2016 said witnesses reported that Aubrey repeatedly kicked the man and threatened to knock him out.

He was fined $250 and remains on administrative re-assignment.

The other driver was charged with DUI.
