Did Chris Brown Assault Rihanna Last Night? Investigation Ongoing

UPDATE -- According to TMZ, Chris Brown has turned himself into the LAPD. It's on now. Chris Brown has been arrested one count of felony criminal threat. His bail has been set at $50,000 -- no word if he's paid it yet. Still developing.

It turns out that the victim is listed as Robyn Fenty, Rihanna's real name.

Well, this is a hot drama night. According to E!, Chris Brown is under investigation for assaulting a female in the wee hours of Sunday morning. As you know, the Grammy Awards will start at 8:00 pm tonight. Chris Brown has withdrawn and will not perform tonight. Rihanna is also noticeably absent from the red carpet. Ryan Seacrest on E! pre-Grammy show said that the female in this altercation and subsequent assault was hurt and had bruises. Now, let's see if Rihanna is the person who was assaulted by Chris Brown.

If these allegations prove to be true, Chris Brown will join a long list of women beaters who end up as social pariahs and rightly so. I won't say anymore until I see how this case plays out and if Rihanna's publicist admits that she was beaten by this young man.
