More details have emerged regarding the controversial assault/battery arrest of singer Chris Brown. TMZ is reporting that law enforcement sources have confirmed that Rihanna sustained severe injuries after she and her beau (Chris Brown) got into an altercation around 12:30am Sunday morning.
Brown later turned himself in to the LAPD, faced questioning and was released on $50,000 bail.
According to TMZ, Rihanna was in very poor condition following the incident – which reportedly left her with bruises, a black eye and contusions.
TMZ reports the following:
“Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Rihanna's injuries were severe -- two "huge contusions" which swelled up on both sides of her forehead. We're told she also suffered "a bloody lip and nose."
So for those of you asking “did Chris Brown beat up Rihanna” or “did Chris Brown go to jail” the answer appears to be yes to both. He did turn himself in to the LAPD and it has been confirmed by many sources that he beat up Rihanna.
Another question many are asking themselves is “Why did Chris Brown beat up Rihanna?”
The answer is that question remains unknown but there’s one rumor fuelling through Hollywood that we’re skeptical to believe.
Some media outlets are reporting that the altercation between Rihanna, 20, and Chris, 19, initiated because “Rihanna gave Chris Brown herpes.”
Despite this exact statement being reported all over the Internet we refuse to believe that this is the truth – and think it’s really disgusting that media outlets would print this type of information when the poor girl has been put through so much already this week.
Hopefully all of the rumors will be cleared up soon – and hopefully Chris Brown gets the punishment he deserves.
Chris finally released a statement (a private statement) via Facebook. Check out what Chris had to say about Rihanna.
