Chris Brown "Breezy" gets released from jail with a reduction in assault charges
Felony assault charge reduced to
misdemeanor.
Chris Brown is
a free man, and a lucky one, too. The singer has been released from jail after
being arrested early Sunday morning for allegedly punching a man and
hurling a gay slur in front of a Washington, D.C. hotel. What's more, the
felony charges against Brown have been dropped to a misdemeanor, meaning Brown
won't face any further jail time as the result of this incident.
According to TMZ, the charges were reduced because the injuries to the victim
of the brawl were minor, despite his assertions that Brown broke his nose.
Brown has plead not guilty to the misdemeanor and claims that the altercation
broke out not because of a photo bomb, but because the man was trying to board
Breezy's tour bus.
The courtroom was
packed this morning for Breezy's arraignment, with family members, reporters
and even buddy Trey Songz showing
up to see the judge decide his fate.
For now, at least,
Brown seems to be in the clear.
