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 artist was taken into custody on May 15, 2025, at a hotel in Manchester.
According to reports by The Daily Telegraph and The Sun, Brown was arrested on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm relating to an incident at a London nightclub in 2023.
London’s Metropolitan Police confirmed that a man aged 36 was detained in connection with the case, though the statement did not mention Brown by name.
A Manchester court has since ordered that Brown remain in custody until his next court appearance on June 13. The development raises uncertainty around his upcoming sold-out European tour dates, including shows scheduled in the Netherlands and Germany for June 8 and 11.
