NEWS: CHRIS BROWN ARRESTED, CHARGED & RELEASED

February 8th, 2009
Chris & Rihanna at Clive Davis’ Pre-Grammy party on Saturday night (Feb. 7th).

chrisfelony.gif A representative for the Los Angeles Police Department confirmed late Sunday, Feb. 8 that popular singer Chris Brown, 19, turned himself in at the Wilshire Police Station on Sunday afternoon, in connection with an alleged domestic violence felony battery report.

The singer voluntarily turned himself in to be questioned and according to TMZ, he was arrested and charged with one count felony criminal threats. His bail was set at $50,000, which he paid and was subsequently released.

Officials are still declining to identify the injured party (UPDATE: RIHANNA NAMED AS VICTIM) in the alleged assault and Brown’s court date is scheduled for March 5th.

As stated, Chris Brown and his reported girlfriend Rihanna both cancelled their scheduled Grammy appearances and performances on Sunday night.

    Gotta watch yourself in the showbiz Chris. It is easy to get yourself into something you shouldn’t be in. Hope everything goes well and you can move on with your career.

    i cant say what happened..and nobody but chris and rihanna wil ever really kno the truth..but i will pray for chris brown. I met both him and rihanna and they r both sincerely nice people. We dont kno what happened in that relationship but i do hope that they both make a mends, learn from this situation and stay far away from each other b/c there is something there that is toxic and not good for either of them.. I will pray for both parties involved!!!

    There was one pic I remember of them leaving a club on ultimate-rihanna.com…cant remember which one. Chris had water all over his face and clothes. I had thought then that maybe they had been at it in the car and Ri threw a drink on him. But, idk….this story is crazy. Chris you can hang it up bud! :(

    It amazes me at the fact that he would hit her after he said that he’s mom used to get hit and he didnt want to see any women have to go through that
    II love chris just as much as the next person but at the end of the day I dont care how mad you get you should never hit another women it really does show what kind of person you really are plus why would you hit a female when your fan base is pretty much made up of them
    I dont care too much for rihanna but damn this isnt something I wish she woud have to go through I hope she presses charges so he can learn to keep his hands to himself becuase this was just not right at all

    i dont know about all this “I’d whip his ass” bullcrap, Chris is 6’2 and 195 l1bs, so unless ur a dude with an equal wingspan u wouldnt be whoppin anyones ass! and she mustve got some serious injuries for it to be a felony supposedly he broker her jaw, thats more than some “young lovers spat” he mustve hauled off on her like she was a fuc*ing man.

    I doubt she tried to whoop Chris’ ass considering how all over him she would be on him in pictures. So protective and all.

    I don’t think Chris’ career will be over with this happening. It’s not like he’s a “Yung Burg” or somebody. Chris will still have a loyal fan base who will be supporting him through his trials and tribulations (lol)

    I wonder if they were drinking or something because Rihanna DEFINTELY has bruises and is sore, but she’s not “seriously” injured according to her publicist who just released a statment…It doesn’t say anything about Chris Brown having bruises. I don’t care how angry you get…you don’t just beat someone up. That’s wrong.

    Just because you turn yourself in DOES NOT mean you actually did something. Lets go here for just a second. Let’s say he didn’t do it but someone said he did and he didn’t turn himself in….how would that look? I think he did the best thing by turning himself in. It saddens me to see all of you all jumping to conclusions and you don’t even know what really happened as you were not there. Could have been a jealous ex or something for goodness sake STALL HIM OUT A MINUTE DANG!
