Chris Brown to remain in custody until the next court hearing in June

Chris Brown was arrested at a five-star hotel in the UK early this morning after allegedly attacking a music producer with a bottle at a nightclub two years ago.

Metropolitan Police detectives detained the 36-year-old American musician at The Lowry Hotel in Manchester at 2am today on suspicion of grievous bodily harm.

Brown is thought to have been taken into custody at a police station for questioning just hours after arriving at Manchester Airport on a private jet. 

The allegations relate to an incident in February 2023 where Brown is claimed to have injured music producer Abe Diaw at Tape nightclub in London's Mayfair.

The Met told MailOnline: 'A 36-year-old man was arrested at a hotel in Manchester shortly after 2am on Thursday, May 15 on suspicion of grievous bodily harm.

'He has been taken into custody where he remains. The arrest relates to an incident at a venue in Hanover Square on February 19, 2023. The investigation is being led by detectives from the Central West Area Basic Command Unit.'

Mr Diaw has previously claimed Brown assaulted him in an unprovoked attack when the rapper and his entourage were at a club night called 'Dirty Martini'.

The producer has alleged that Brown hit over the head with a bottle two or three times and then punched and kicked him as he lay on the floor.

Brown had been in the UK during a worldwide tour at the time.

UPDATE:
On Friday, Chris Brown has appeared in court. He was escorted to the dock at Manchester Magistrates' court by two security guards.

Several fans were in court to show their support for the singer - too many to fit into one courtroom.

Judge Hirst told Brown GBH(Grievous Bodily Harm) is "too serious" an offence to be dealt with at Magistrates’ court.

The Judge then confirmed that the case will be heard on June 13 at 10am at Southwark Crown Court in London.

Chris Brown has been remanded in custody ahead of his next court appearance on June 13.

I hope Haus of Gagas is aware of this, so they could look into the possibility of replacing his 10 U.K. dates with the Mayhem ball

This is not surprising. 
 

What is extremely disturbing is that he has fans that are willing to show up to support him. People are deranged. It’s one thing to separate the art from the artist, but it’s a completely different to go out of your way to support this man who has proven himself to be a menace for decades.
