Chris Brown was arrested for assault in Washington D.C. on Sunday morning, a police spokesperson confirms to Gossip Cop.
The singer allegedly got into a “physical altercation” with an adult male outside the W Hotel, and was taken into custody for felony assault around 4:30 a.m.
We’re told a third person, 35-year-old Chris Hollosy, was arrested on the same charge, with some outlets identifying him as Brown’s bodyguard, but police could not confirm their association.
The victim “sustained injuries,” and was reportedly evaluated at a local hospital.
Both Brown and Hollosy are expected to remain in jail until an arraignment on Monday, though that is subject to change.
Gossip Cop has reached out to a rep for Brown, but did not immediately hear back.
The arrest and charge could have serious implications for the performer, who is still on probation for beating ex-girlfriend Rihanna.
Brown was in D.C. for an appearance Saturday at The Park, a nightclub.
We’ll have updates.
