Chris Brown was arrested in Washington, D.C., early Sunday morning (October 27) after allegedly assaulting a man outside a hotel.

Brown was arrested for felony assault following an incident in which he got into an altercation with an unnamed man outside the W Hotel on K Street, with police telling the site that Brown punched the man once in the face.

Sources said the Brown and the victim did not know each other and that Brown’s bodyguard, Christopher Hollosy, was also arrested in the incident, which took place around 4:25 a.m. Law enforcement sources told that Brown did not appear to be under the influence at the time of his arrest and was still behind bars as of press time. Brown is still on probation in connection with his 2009 guilty plea to felony domestic violence assault in connection with his attack on ex-girlfriend Rihanna and at press time it was unclear how this latest arrest could affect his probation. As part of a plea deal in the Rihanna case that allowed him to avoid jail time, Brown was sentenced to five years of probation and more than 1,400 hours of community labor.

Brown’s attorney could not be reached by News for comment at press time, but a spokesperson for the Washington D.C. Police department confirmed the arrest of the singer and Hollosy. Both were still in custody at press time and would remain so until at least Monday morning when the court re-opens for business and they can appear before a judge to request bail; both men were charged with felony assault.

Quoting unnamed sources close to Brown, said the victim did not Photobomb Brown, but instead was trying to get onto the star’s tour bus when Brown stepped in to stop him.

The victim, who said he is not a fan of Brown’s, was confused about why Brown made the homophobic slur against him and that he would have accepted an apology at the scene, but is not likely to press charges against the singer. Brown was in town to host a “homecoming party” at the Park at Fourteen clubs on Saturday night, just a few blocks from where the fight took place.
