The man who got into an altercation with Britney Spears at the famous Chateau Marmont hotel on the Sunset Strip has a troubling past that included several instances with law enforcement, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
The outlet confirmed that Spears and her boyfriend Paul Soliz got into a big fight on Wednesday night, which sparked law enforcement and paramedics to be called to the scene.
It was reported that things turned physical between the singer and her boyfriend, with insiders telling TMZ that Spears may have hurt her leg, but RadarOnline.com is told Britney is fine and left the hotel with her security and without Paul.
Fans weren't a huge fan of her boyfriend when they discovered they recently rekindled their romance after a short rendezvous following her split from Sam Asghari.
RadarOnline.com told you — LAPD officers arrived at the ultra-famous hotel around 10:30 PM after someone called 911 to report a woman matching the popstar's description was allegedly harassing and threatening hotel employees and guests; however, when they got there, things appeared to have settled so the police left.
The peace didn't last long because Spears and Paul allegedly got into an altercation inside their hotel suite that poured into the hallway.
Sources told TMZ the singer was allegedly screaming, with insiders saying she was "out of control." Several guests reportedly thought she was having a mental breakdown and called paramedics, who arrived at the hotel around 12:40 AM.
After making contact with Spears, the paramedics left. She did not get into the ambulance and left the facility with her security without Paul. What sparked their altercation is unknown — but this is far from the first time Spears' boyfriend has faced law enforcement.
