Chris Brown has been arrested for felony assault.
Insiders confirm to TMZ that an incident took place this morning around 4:30 in Washington D.C., as Brown allegedly got into an argument with a man outside the W Hotel and started punching him repeatedly.
It is not believed that the singer was under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time.
As of this writing, Brown is in custody and the victim is being treated for injuries at a local hospital.
The artist, of course, remains under probation for his beating of Rihanna in 2009 and this arrest may be grounds for a violation of those terms. If so, he could be sentenced for at least four years in prison.
Prior to the altercation, Brown - who claims he's a beast at sex - had been hosting a party at a nightclub nearby.
