Chris Brown is being accused of punching a woman in the face during a party in his Las Vegas hotel suite.
According to TMZ,the incident allegedly occurred after he caught the woman taking his photo in the early hours of Saturday morning at the Palms Hotel in Las Vegas.
Liziane Gutierrez, the alleged victim, told TMZ she had snuck her cellphone past Brown's security guards.After Brown spotted her taking his picture, he yelled and punched her once in the face and took her phone.Gutierrez, who is a Brazilian model, left the party, only calling police some hours later, and was not treated at hospital.
Vegas police confirmed to local news outlet Las Vegas Now that they were investigating Brown for battery and theft and that the incident was reported to them at 10.20am on January 2.
Brown posted a now deleted video to his Instagram where he labeled Gutierrez as 'ugly' and denied her claims against him.
'Obviously somebody is looking to get a check or start some s***,''I don't know this old looking b****. This b**** is old, like dusty, look at her in the Jason Derulo video.'Like she came to Vegas, she probably came to my room and was too ugly to get in.'
Just woke up and saw this!!!! You know this is bulls***!''This woman has the worst case of the uglies (sic) I've ever seen. I guess she is in Vegas hoping someone will slip up and mess wit (sic) her. Lol.'
