Have learned that the singer has been accused of assaulting a woman at
a San Diego nightclub on Saturday evening.
The Anaheim Police Department confirmed that they received a phone
call from a womanalleging that she was pushed by the rapper during his
performance at Heat Ultra Lounge at 9:30 p.m. on Sunday night.
She claimed that she was pushed and injured,but did not meet with the
police in person regarding the incident.
The investigation is currently ongoing, and police have not revealed
the identity of the woman involved in the alleged incident.
E! News exclusively spoke with the operational manager at the
nightclub who claimed to hear that Brown had "moved someone out of the
way" after his set and that "perhaps the incident is being blown outof
proportion."
Brown, apparently responding to reports of the incident, tweeted, "I
didn't do anything." His tweet has since been deleted.
Earlier this month, the "Fine China" singer was in court to discuss
discovery materials stemming from his 2009 assault case.
The L.A. County District Attorney's Office had accused the Grammy
winner of providing shoddy documentation concerning the 180 hours of
community labor he supposedly completed as part of his sentence for
assaulting Rihanna.
Per the current terms of his sentence, he is on probation until next
summer. The judge set a preliminary hearing date for July 15 to
determine whether they should move forward with a probation-violation
charge.
No word yet on how the latest assault allegations may affect Brown's
ongoing courtcase.
UPDATE: Heat management is standing by Brown, with Mike Joher of Royal
Entertainment telling E! News in a statement that, based on
information gathered from their security, mall security and other
partygoers, "it is apparent that the alleged incident regarding Chris
Brown is fales."
According to the club, Brown's accuser was trying to jump on the stage
and "there was no way that he could have touched her, his section was
roped off and he had heavy security surrounding him. Witnesses state
that she was persistently trying to rush Chris"and was "eventually
removed from the club."
Heat also alleges that the woman threw her shoes at club security as
she was being escorted out and, while they thought about calling the
cops, they allowed her to just leave.
Brown "was a complete gentleman and remained professional throughout
the entire night," Joher concluded. "Neither I, nor any ofthe
witnesses we spoke to, saw him push or touch anybody."
