Chris Brown accused of hitting woman at California home, police say
Grammy-winning singer Chris Brown has been accused of hitting a woman during an argument at a Southern California home.
The incident occurred Friday morning at a residence in the San Fernando Valley area of Los Angeles, the police told the Daily News.
“The victim advised that she and the suspect argued, and the suspect struck her,” the L.A. Police Department statement said.
There were no arrests; officers took the report at the home.
“The suspect was not at the location when the police arrived,” the police statement said.
Police said the crime report will be handed over to the city attorney for “filing considerations.”
A lawyer for Brown, 32, didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
Though officials didn’t release specifics about the incident, TMZ reported the woman accused Brown of slapping her hard enough to dislodge part of her hair weave. She reportedly didn’t suffer any injury.
In 2009, Brown was charged with committing felony assault on then-girlfriend Rihanna, and pleaded guilty in a settlement deal later that year.
In 2017, actress Karrueche Tran got a five-year restraining order against Brown after accusing him of abuse.
