LAPD sources say the witness, who remains unidentified, did not know entertainers were involved when reporting early Sunday morning that a violent altercation was taking place on a quiet Hancock Park Street.
Detectives are still in the process of gathering evidence in the alleged beating and haven’t as of yet turned the case over to the prosecutors. For those of you who may not be familiar with the law… The prosecutor is the person who determines whether to file charges against Brown.
According to the spokeswoman for the district attorney’s office, nothing has been presented to her office at this time.
Chris Brown was booked Sunday on suspicion of making criminal threats and was released on $50,000 bail. Rihanna, whose real name is Robyn Rihanna Fenty, suffered visible injuries in the “altercation”.
Police says the incident occurred after Clive Davis’s pre-Grammy gala in Beverly Hills.
Both entertainers were up for multiple awards at the Sunday night ceremony, but neither attended. Chris Brown aged 19, turned himself into police after the show was underway.
Chris Brown’s arraignment is currently slated for March 5th. His attorney, Mark Geragos, did not immediately return calls. The rented Lamborghini Brown was driving is locked in an impound lot, police said.
Rihanna’s publicist stated that Rihanna was doing fine and that she appreciated everyone’s love and support.
Chris Brown’s spokesman did not respond to The Times’ request for comment. Brown finished 2008 as the fourth-best-selling artist in the digital realm, posting 6.8 million tracks sold, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
