Foul! Chris Brown Sued For Alleged Assault During Basketball Game
Feb. 15 2014, Published 10:43 a.m. ET
Chris Brown's legal troubles continue as the bad boy singer has been sued by Malcolm Ausbon, who claims he was beaten up by Rihanna's ex-boyfriend and his security team during a game of basketball last summer at 24 Hour Fitness.
According to the court documents, during a pick-up basketball game last summer at the health club in North Hollywood, trouble arose after a foul was called against Brown by Ausbon.
"When Ausbon expressed dissatisfaction with Brown's behavior, Brown threatened to 'kick his ass' and 'put these hands on you.' Additionally, Brown claimed to be a member of the 'Bloods' a street gang engaged in criminal activity, not limited to murder, drugs, extortion and crime," the lawsuit claims.
As the plaintiff walked away, Brown's security detail and the singer allegedly began to "strike, punch, kick, pull and stomp Ausbon's head and body," sending him to the emergency room.
Ausbon is also suing 24 Hour Fitness for not having a security guard on the premises.
Brown, 24, is currently in a court-ordered 90 day treatment program for his anger management issues, after being arrested in Washington DC for allegedly assaulting someone outside of the W Hotel.
He remains on probation for his 2009 conviction of felony assault on then-girlfriend, Rihanna.
The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages.
