Yet another person is claiming to have been physically assaulted by singer Chris Brown.
A woman named Liziane Gutierrez tells TMZ that early Saturday morning, she sneaked her cell phone into the Palms Hotel in Las Vegas, where Brown was holding a private party in his suite. She says that after she snapped a picture of the entertainer, he became enraged. He allegedly began shouting at her and punched her in her right eye.
Gutierrez claims she called the police hours after the incident but did not go to a hospital. TMZ posted a picture of the woman’s injury from the alleged attack. The skin around her right eye appears slightly darkened.
Reportedly, local police are investigating the situation. A rep for Brown has said that Gutierrez’s allegations are “undeniably untrue.”
Although this is the first accusation against Brown of the year, he was connected to several assault cases in 2015. A woman claimed she was forcibly thrown off Brown’s tour bus in Colorado at a strip club, but she later decided to discontinue pursuing charges against the singer.
In November, a woman said that while at the Palms Hotel in Las Vegas, Brown’s entourage thought she was trying to steal someone’s cellphone. She alleged that his security guard grabbed her by her hair, shook her, and threw her to the ground. She was reportedly hospitalized and suffered from whiplash.
He was also accused of fighting two men on two separate occasions during basketball games.
