Chris Breezy arrested for allegedly smashing a tequila bottle over a music producer’s head at a nightclub: report
Breezy was arrested in Manchester over an alleged bottle attack that dates back two years
Chris Brown was detained by police hours after landing in the UK.
On Thursday morning, the singer was arrested at a five-star hotel in Manchester, England, for allegedly attacking a music producer with a bottle at a nightclub, according to TMZ.
The “Under the Influence” singer was arrested at 2 a.m. outside the Lowry Hotel for an incident that happened in February 2023 at Tape nightclub in Mayfair, London.
“He has been taken into custody, where he remains,” the police force said.
“The arrest relates to an incident at a venue in Hanover Square on Feb. 19, 2023. The investigation is being led by detectives from the Central West Area Basic Command Unit.”
In October 2023, the accuser, known as Abe Diaw, filed a lawsuit against Brown, claiming the “New Flame” crooner had assaulted him eight months prior.
The producer alleged Chris Brown “inflicted severe and lasting injuries” on him after “beating him over the head” with a bottle of Don Julio 1942 in February 2023 at the Tape London nightclub.
The two-time Grammy winner then allegedly proceeded to “ruthlessly stomp on” Diaw and kick him in the back of the neck, knocking him unconscious for 30 seconds.
In his suit, Diaw claimed the “crushing blows” sent him to the hospital with “lacerations on his head and torn ligaments in his leg.”
The music executive also claimed in the filing that Brown had partaken in “defamatory conduct by spreading false rumors” about him and his clients after the incident, including calling him a thief in order to hurt his professional relationships.
