Culled from (Reuters) - Miami officials said on Friday reports of an arrest
warrant issued for R&B singer Chris Brown are inaccurate, although
the singer is still a suspect in the alleged theft of a mobile phone
earlier this week.
Brown, 22, who won a Grammy award earlier this month, is midway
through a five-year probation after pleading guilty to criminal assault
for beating ex-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009. If arrested again, Brown
risks being jailed for probation violation.
In a report filed with Miami Beach Police Department on Sunday,
24-year-old Christal Spann, a resident of Miami, named Brown as a
suspect in a "robbery by sudden snatching."
The report cites Spann's claim that Brown, who was in a black Bentley
automobile, reached through an open window and snatched Spann's iPhone
out of her hand as she tried to snap a picture of him, saying "you ain't
going to put that on no website," before driving off with the phone.
The incident is still under investigation by the Miami Beach police,
and a spokeswoman at the Miami-Dade County state attorney's office said
on Friday that reports of an arrest warrant issued for Brown were
inaccurate at this time.
Representatives for Brown did not immediately return calls for comment.
