LOS ANGELES, Calif. — Chris Brown has been charged with felony battery after an alleged violent incident on Saturday night, Access Hollywood has learned.
Earlier on Sunday, the LAPD was investigating Brown for assault following an alleged domestic violence felony battery against a woman reported to be the singer’s girlfriend, Rihanna, at 12:30 AM on Sunday in Los Angeles. Both Brown and Rihanna pulled out of Sunday evening’s Grammy Awards before the ceremony.
Brown turned himself in on Sunday evening, the LAPD confirmed to Access.
“At around 6:30 PM on February 8, 2009 R&B entertainer Chris Brownturned himself in to authorities at the Los Angeles Police Department’s Wilshire Division,” the LAPD said in a statement to Access. “Detectives investigating the alleged domestic violence felony battery booked him for criminal threats.”
According to his booking sheet, Brown was being held on a $50,000 bail under a felony charge. He has since been released.
According to the Los Angeles Times, the victim of the alleged assault was Rihanna, though the LAPD would not confirm that report.
“At the time the case is presented to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office, additional charges may be filed. It will be up the LA County DA to review the case and determine which charge or charges will be most appropriate,” the LAPD noted.
Earlier, the LAPD confirmed to Access that the R&B singer and an undisclosed woman were in a vehicle on North June St. in the Hancock Park area of LA, where the victim claims an argument occurred. Brown allegedly stopped the car and the woman suffered “visible injuries” and identified the singer as her attacker.
