**The American R&B star was arrested in Manchester after a bottle attack investigation linked to a nightclub assault.**
US singer Chris Brown has been arrested in Manchester following accusations linking him to a violent incident at a London nightclub. The artist was taken into custody in the early hours of Thursday morning, on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm to music producer Abe Diaw during an altercation at the Tape nightclub in Mayfair that occurred on February 19, 2023.
The arrest transpired after The Sun newspaper tipped off the Metropolitan Police about Brown's presence in the UK, leading to officers tracking him down at a hotel. A spokesman for the Met confirmed that the 36-year-old artist had been detained for questioning regarding the serious charges.
Abe Diaw, the alleged victim, has recounted the incident, asserting that Brown struck him with a bottle, followed by further physical aggression while he was on the ground. Diaw reported sustaining significant injuries, requiring hospitalization and crutches for recovery.
Brown, who is recognized for chart-topping hits including "Ayo," "No Air," and "Beautiful People," has a robust tour schedule ahead, with performances planned in the UK this June and July. As the investigation unfolds, it remains uncertain how these developments will affect his upcoming shows.
