Metropolitan police told Suns that Brown, 36, was detained at the five-star Lowry Hotel for suspected serious physical injury. “He was detained and stayed there,” the police force said.
“The arrests are related to the incident that took place on a site in Hannover Square on February 19, 2023. The investigation was led by detectives at the Basic Command of the Midwest.”
What are the charges of Chris Brown?
The complainant, Mr Diaw, accused R&B star Chris Brown of launching an unprovoked attack on him at 3 a.m. while the singer and his entourage were in high-end tape nightclubs.
Mr. Dia claimed Brown hit him in the head with a bottle and then punched him on the ground and kicked him. “He hit me twice or three times. My knees fell down,” the music producer said in a speech to the sun on Sunday.
After the alleged attack, Mr. Diaff was taken to the hospital and asked the crutches to walk after they were released. The incident was reportedly taken place when Brown was in the UK as part of his global tour.
Brown plans to hold ten shows in the UK next month, but an ongoing police investigation could undermine the remaining tour.
In response to the alleged incident, Mr Dia filed a civil lawsuit against Brown for $16 million (£12 million) in compensation for the injuries and financial losses he claimed to have suffered.
The two-time Grammy winner plans to continue his “Breeze Bowl XX Tour” (celebrating his 20-year career), in which R&B professional R&B artist Summer Walker opens North American legs, and Bryson Tiller joins him in Europe and the UK.
