The “Look at me Now” singer has been named a battery suspect following a violent basketball brawl in Las Vegas, according to police.<\/p>\n
The 25-year-old was playing at the Palms Casino Resort just before 4 a.m. Monday when he allegedly punched an opponent when an argument broke out, police said.<\/p>\n
The unidentified victim transported himself to a hospital where he was treated and then released for non-life threatening injuries.<\/p>\n
Officers responding to the scene said they were unable to make contact with Brown.<\/p>\n
Police said he\u2019s now facing the options of either signing a citation for misdemeanor battery, or having the case submitted to the Clark County District Attorney\u2019s Office for prosecution.<\/p>\n
The singer’s latest bout with the law comes roughly six weeks after he\u00a0completed probation <\/a>for the brutal 2009 assault of his then-girlfriend, songstress Rihanna.<\/p>\n He had been under supervision by court and probation officers since pleading guilty to the pre-Grammy Awards attack.<\/p>\n Since that incident Brown has been charged with misdemeanor assault for striking a man outside a Washington Hotel.<\/p>\n He was ordered into rehab for that second attack but was eventually dismissed from the facility for violating its rules. He consequently spent two-and-a-half months in custody.<\/p>\n
