Chris Brown's legal troubles got more serious Tuesday when a
Los Angeles
prosecutor charged him in a minor traffic crash.
Brown already faces a charge that he violated his probation
in connection with his felony assault conviction in the beating of his
girlfriend Rihanna, according to CNN.
Brown, 24, allegedly was driving a car that rear-ended
another car in Los Angeles
in May.
The Los Angeles
city attorney filed charges of hit-and-run driving and driving without a
license, according to spokesman Frank Mateljan.
While Brown's representatives did not immediately respond to
CNN calls for comment, the singer used his Twitter account to protest the
charges:
"It's not a hit and run if u get out the car, exchange
information (who has NO DAMAGE to either cars).This is really ridiculous"
Meanwhile, Brown's representative denied allegations Monday
that the singer assaulted a woman while inside of an Anaheim , California ,
nightclub on Saturday.
The accuser told TMZ that Brown shoved her while they were
in the VIP area of Heat Ultra Lounge that night, causing her to take a hard
fall and injuring her knee.
The owner of the venue has called the claims false, and
Brown's rep has made a similar denial.
"Reports that Chris Brown had physical contact with a
female patron at the nightclub Heat are totally false and unfounded,"
Brown's rep told CNN. "Upon speaking with witnesses, security and the
owner of the club, it has been proven that said patron caused the physical harm
to herself in her belligerent state."
According to the Anaheim Police Department, an assault and
battery report was filed by phone on Sunday evening. The case is considered an
open and ongoing investigation.
