In the early hours of Sunday, October 27, 2013, police officers arrested singer Chris Brown and his bodyguard in Washington, D.C. Early reports allege that Brown and his
bodyguard attacked a man outside the W Hotel by the White House. While a police investigation will determine
whether or not Brown is guilty of the crimes he committed, he faces the very
serious issue of having violated his probation. At the time of the arrest, Brown was on
probation following his February 2009 arrest for assaulting his
then-girlfriend, Rhianna.
