American R&B singer Chris Brown has been remanded in custody in the United Kingdom following his arrest in connection with a 2023 assault case.
The 36-year-old was taken into custody on May 15, 2025, at a hotel in Manchester. According to The Daily Telegraph and The Sun, Brown was arrested on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm during an incident at a London nightclub in 2023.
While London’s Metropolitan Police confirmed the arrest of a 36-year-old man related to the case, they did not officially name Brown in their statement.
A Manchester court has ordered that he remain in custody until his next hearing on June 13. The arrest casts doubt on his upcoming sold-out European tour dates, including concerts in the Netherlands and Germany scheduled for June 8 and 11.
