Chris Brown Arrested For Felony Battery After Assaulting Rihanna

Chris Brown and Rihanna were supposed to perform at tonight’s Grammy Awards in Los Angeles, but those plans were scratched after Chris Brown was booked by LAPD on felony battery charges–he allegedly assaulted a woman near Hancock Park in L.A. We’re guessing it was his girlfriend, Rihanna…but that’s still a mystery since her name was being withheld for victim confidentiality.

According to TMZ, Chris turned himself in around 7 P.M. PST after strolling into a station–bail was set at $50,000 as he plans to (easily) pay himself outta’ this one…for now.

Chris Brown is under investigation for alleged domestic violence felony battery, the LAPD confirms to PEOPLE. “The identity of the victim will not be released,” said Officer April Harding. “Any victim who’s involved in a domestic violence incident is entitled to confidentiality.”

Officer Harding added: “If police locate Brown, yes, he’s subject to arrest.” Brown, 19, and girlfriend Rihanna, 20, were scheduled to perform at the Grammys, but this statement was released Sunday evening: “We have just been informed that Rihanna will not be attending tonight’s 51st Annual Grammy Awards. We’re sorry she is unable to join us this evening.”

Around 12:30 a.m. on Sunday, Brown and a woman were in a vehicle in L.A. when they became involved in an argument, according to a police statement. After stopping his car, the R&B singer and the woman got out and the argument escalated. The LAPD received a 911 call reporting the disturbance. When officers arrived they found the victim, but Brown had already left the scene, the statement reads. The woman suffered visible injuries and identified Brown as her attacker, police say.

UPDATE: The female victim is confirmed to be Rihanna, and she’s said to have facial bruises amongst other things. Click inside for a video of Chris Brown leaving Wilshire’s LAPD station after posting bail!
