Chris Brown just can’t stay out of court. Now he’s being sued because his bodyguards allegedly assaulted a photographer.
Chris Brown maintains he isn’t “a monster.” He may be hanging around with a few scary types, however.
A photographer has sued the R&B singer for assault and battery, claiming Brown’s entourage chased him after he took a picture of the star during a pickup basketball game March 13. Then one of Brown’s bodyguards “picked him up by his shorts and physically assaulted him.”
Shutterbug Robert Rosen, who two years ago accused Pierce Brosnan of sucker-punching him outside a restaurant, is also suing L.A. Fitness, the gym where Brown was shooting hoops, according to the complaint filed Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court.
According to the plaintiff, he had snapped a pic of the recently maligned artist when Brown’s “associates/and or bodyguards/and or others” spotted him, yelled something and started walking toward him. SOURCE
