US rapper Chris Brown was arrested at a five-star hotel in the early hours of this morning over an alleged bottle attack at a London nightclub. It comes just weeks ahead of him bringing his Breezy Bowl XX Tour to Dublin's Marlay Park on June 28.
Met Police detectives arrested the 36-year-old American musician just after 2am at The Lowry Hotel in Manchester. Brown was held on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm to music producer Abe Diaw at trendy Tape nightclub in Mayfair, Central London, in February 2023.
Brown flew into Manchester Airport on a private jet on Wednesday afternoon. After discovering he was in the country, Met detectives then travelled to Manchester where they arrested him. He was taken into custody and is thought to have been taken to a local police station for questioning.
A Met spokesman said: âA 36-year-old man was arrested at a hotel in Manchester shortly after 02:00hrs on Thursday, 15 May 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 19 February 2023. The investigation is being led by detectives from the Central West Area Basic Command Unit.ââ
Mr Diaw alleges R&B star Brown launched an unprovoked attack on him at around 3am while the star and his entourage were at a Dirty Martini club night held at the trendy Tape nightclub, Mirror UK reports. He claims Brown smashed him over the head with a bottle and then punched and kicked him as he lay on the floor. At the time he said: âHe hit me over the head two or three times. My knee collapsed as well.â
Chris Brown arrested at Manchester hotel over alleged bottle attackMr Diaw had to be taken to hospital, needing crutches to walk when he was discharged. The alleged attack occurred while songwriter Brown was on a worldwide tour and playing in Ireland. He kicked off the tour in Dublin's 3Arena on February 11, 2023, eight days before the alleged incident.
As well as his upcoming Dublin concert, Brown is due to play 10 more dates in the UK next month but the tour could be thrown into chaos by the police investigation.
Diaw has launched a civil claim against Brown for $16 million (âŹ14.2 million) in damages for injuries and losses suffered as a result of the alleged attack.
The two-time Grammy winner was planning to jet off around the world for his Breezy Bowl XX Tour - a celebration of his 20 year career. During the tour, Brown was set to play at the Co-Op Live stadium in Manchester before performing again at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff.
Then, the singer hoped to perform a huge show at Tottenham Hotspurâs stadium in London before heading to Birmingham, Glasgow and Dublin.
After announcing the tour in March, Brown took to Instagram writing: âCELEBRATING 20 years of CB. So excited to be able to share this moment with the world and my amazing fans. I CANT WAIT TO SEE ALL YALLS BEAUTIFUL FACES. IMA TAKE YALL THREW THESE ERAS BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY GIVE YALL MY HEART AND SOUL.â
The tour would follow his highly successful string of concerts in 2024, which supported his album entitled 11:11. Brown generated $82.3 million (âŹ73.4 million) from his 11:11 concerts after selling a staggering 446,000 tickets.
The star is known for rubbing shoulders with other high profile celebrities including partying with Conor McGregor and Tommy Fury.
