An alleged run-in with members of the paparazzi on Saturday has left R & B singer Chris Brown's car "totalled", according to media sources out of Los Angeles.
Brown says he was driving to a charity event at the Debbie Allen Dance Academy for a Symphonic Love Foundation event when he was cut off by two vehicles, notes Just Jared.
A rep for the 23-year-old performer says that the occupants of the two cars “jumped out, with cameras, and aggressively approached [Brown's] vehicle". Brown reportedly tried to distance himself from the occupants by backing down an alley. It was there that Brown claims his car was cut off again by an additional two vehicles, reports Gossip Cop.
The pursuit left Brown's car "totalled," according to TMZ. Brown's rep also told the site the singer wasn't seriously hurt. Despite the accident, Brown still attended the charity event, according to Extra. While Brown was alone at the time of the alleged run-in, he may not be alone come Sunday night.
Chris Brown was involved in a car crash Saturday afternoon, RadarOnline.com has confirmed.
Ironically, the incident happened the day before the Grammy Awards — it was on that same day in 2009 that Brown beat up his girlfriend Rihanna.
“There was a car accident,” Lt. Mike Foxen of the Beverly Hills Police Department tells RadarOnline.com.
“I don’t believe it was totaled,” he said, disputing an Internet report that the Porsche was a total loss. “But I don’t work for an insurance company so I can’t say that.”
The accident took place in an alley in Beverly Hills at 12:03 pm, Lt. Foxen reveals.
Asked if the incident involved paparazzi, Foxen replied, “according to him [Brown].”
Brown left the scene on his own, no ambulance was called and no one was hurt. His car was towed away.
