Singer Chris Brown was arrested tonight in Los Angeles during the Grammy Awards. The 19-year-old singer, who was due to perform at tonight’s ceremony, cancelled his appearance because he was being investigated for an alleged domestic violence felony battery incident.
Chris Brown was reportedly sitting in a car with a woman in the Hancock Park neighborhood of Los Angeles early this morning when the pair began arguing. The argument escalated, but by the time the police arrived, the singer had left the scene.
Police say the woman identified Brown as her attacker, but he was gone by the time officers arrived.
Chris Brown is being held by police on $50,000 bail. Rihanna, Chris Brown’s long-time girlfriend, also cancelled her appearance at tonight’s Grammy Awards. Early media reports say that Rihanna was involved in the dispute and had injuries on her face and bite marks on her arm, but these reports have not yet been confirmed.
Chris Brown has been charged with one count felony criminal threats. His bail has been set at $50,000.
