R&B singer Chris Brown, one of the biggest-selling performers in pop music,
was booked tonight in Los Angeles on charges stemming from an alleged assault
on his girlfriend, pop singer Rihanna, according to police and other sources
familiar with the investigation.
An official police statement did not name Rihanna, but said the woman in the
incident “suffered visible injuries.”
Details of what took place between the two were sketchy, but authorities and
sources said that about 12:30 a.m. Sunday, Brown and a woman got into an
argument in a rented Lamborghini on North June Street in Hancock Park. Brown
stopped the car, the two got out, and the argument escalated. A witness
called 911, but police said Brown was gone by the time officers arrived at
the scene. The woman identified Brown as her assailant.
Authorities did not describe her injuries or whether she was treated for them.
The sources said the woman was Rihanna, whose full name is Robyn Rihanna
Fenty.
Brown was booked on a charge of making criminal threats, and police said he
remained under investigation for felony charges of domestic violence. “The
exact charge was criminal threats and it is going to be investigated as a
criminal threats investigation,” said Police Sgt. Bridgett Pickett, who
spoke to reporters at the Wilshire Division police station, where Brown was
booked. “There may be domestic violence charges added later, but that will
be up to the district attorney’s office.”
Pickett defined a criminal threat as “a threat that is made to a person with
the likelihood that it may occur.” She said that Brown arrived at the police
station about 6:30 p.m. dressed in a T-shirt and jeans. “He was very
professional,” she said. Brown was joined at the station by his lawyer, Mark
Geragos, and Geragos’ investigator, Scott Ross.
After posting $50,000 bail, Brown left the station before 9 p.m.
Both Brown and Rihanna had been scheduled to perform at the Grammy Awards,
which began at 5 p.m. at Staples Center. Neither appeared, and Grammy
officials issued a statement just before the show saying, "We have just been
informed Rihanna will not be attending tonight’s 51st Grammy Awards. Rihanna
will not be performing. We are sorry to see she is unable to join us this
evening.”
A publicist for the Barbados-born star, who sold more digital song downloads
than any other in 2008, with nearly 10 million tracks, said Sunday night, “
Rihanna is well. Thank you for your concern and support.”
Her song “Disturbia,” which she’d been scheduled to perform at the
ceremony, was the sixth best-selling digital track of the year. She was
replaced by veteran soul singer Al Green, who was accompanied by country
singer-guitarist Keith Urban.
Brown and Rihanna had appeared together Saturday night at producer Clive Davis
’ pre-Grammy gala in Beverly Hills.
A spokesman for Brown’s record label did not respond to The Times’ request
for comment. Brown finished 2008 as the fourth-best-selling artist in the
digital realm, posting 6.8 million tracks sold, according to Nielsen
SoundScan.
