US singer Chris Brown has been charged with grievous bodily harm, for an alleged attack which is said to have taken place in a London nightclub in 2023.

‘’A 36-year-old man was arrested at a hotel in Manchester shortly after 2am on Thursday, May 15 on suspicion of grievous bodily harm," read a statement from the Metropolitan Police in London.

The statement also added: ‘’He has been taken into custody where he remains. The arrest relates to an incident at a venue in Hanover Square on February 19, 2023."

According to The Sun, Brown flew into Manchester Airport on a private jet yesterday afternoon. He was arrested shortly after at a five-star hotel where he was staying.

The alleged victim of Brown's attack is music producer Abraham Diaw, who claims the singer attacked him with a bottle and hit him over the head "two or three times." Diaw had to be taken to the hospital as a result of the attack.

The singer is scheduled to appear at Manchester Magistrates' Court on Friday, May 16.

The two-time Grammy award-winning artist is scheduled to embark on his Breezy Bowl XX Tour, which includes a date in Marlay Park in Dublin on June 28.

Brown has a history of legal issues dating back to 2009, when he attacked then-girlfriend Rihanna resulting in her receiving severe facial injuries.
