The woman reportedly said Brown pointed a gun at her inside his home.
Authorities are investigating whether Chris Brown allegedly threatened a woman at gunpoint inside his California home early Tuesday.
Los Angeles police said they responded to a 911 call about a disturbance about 3 a.m. and found a woman outside Brown’s Tarzana residence crying and asking for help. The woman said Brown pointed a gun at her before she ran outside to call police, the Los Angeles Times reports.
The singer taunted police in a series of expletive-laced videos he posted on Instagram as authorities were waiting to obtain a search warrant. “I’m not coming out. For what? I ain’t did s—. I ain’t gon do s—. F— the police,” he said, adding that he’s not the “villain” he’s being painted as for “something I didn’t do.”
“I’m tired of this s—. I am a father. I am one of the best entertainers out here,” he added. “Good luck, when you get the warrant or whatever you need to do, you gonna walk right up in here and you gonna see nothing, you idiots.”
Detectives were attempting to make contact with Brown, Lt. Chris Ramirez said at a news conference outside the singer’s home. The investigation has been moved to the police department’s Robbery and Homicide division, Ramirez said.
Brown pleaded guilty to attacking his then-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009, according to the Times. He was released from probation in March 2015.
Brown’s representative declined to comment.
