Chris Brown faces four years in prison for probation violation after being charged with a hit-and-run

Chris Brown's legal woes continue to roll on with the singer now allegedly being charged with hit and run.
TMZ reports that the 24-year-old singer has been hit with two criminal charges by the L.A. City Attorney.
The charges stem from an incident that occurred last month when Chris allegedly rear-ended another driver but reportedly refused to give her his driver's license or pass over correct insurance details.


Brown's Range Rover reportedly inflicted 'medium damage' on the Mercedes in Toluca Lake in May, according to a report from TMZ.
Brown, who didn't try and flee the scene, has more to lose than most as he's still on probation for beating on and off girlfriend Rihanna back in 2009.
As well as reportedly being charged with hit and run, he has also been charged with driving without a license, claim TMZ. 
Each charge carries a maximum of six months in jail, however the City Attorney is said to be intent on raising the incidents with the L.A. County D.A.

Chris could be in violation of his parole and if he is found guilty he could be sentenced to up to four years in prison.
Chris on Tuesday spoke out about the reports on his Twitter account, calling the incident 'ridiculous' and denying that he gave the other driver false details.
'It's not a hit and run if u get out the car, exchange information (who has NO DAMAGE to either cars).This is really ridiculous,' he wrote.

'I have a valid drivers license and I gave the woman the right info. She saw cameras and wanted to make a scene.'
The singer then accused the woman of trying to make money out of the incident.
'She contacted the cops thinking of a payday from Chris Brown when I followed the proper procedures,' he wrote.
'My lawyers will be contacting you. I will not stand for this bullying and yellow journalism!'
He also updated his avatar on the social networking site, changing it to a picture of the Mercedes in question in an effort to prove that there was no damage done to the other car.

'Based on My profile pic is the pic I took of the  persons car after "the hit and run". NO damage. Just a dirty car.once again, I gotta clear my name,' he wrote.
Meanwhile, on Monday it was claimed that Chris did not harm a woman who accused him of assault at a nightclub, according to the establishment's owner.
Deanna Gines, 24, alleges that Chris pushed her to the ground while partying at Heat Ultra Lounge in Anaheim, California, on Saturday, but the club's proprietor told the MailOnline that they have  reviewed security footage and insist Chris has been wrongly accused.
'Based on the information which we have gathered from our security company, mall security, and other party goers which were at HEAT on Saturday night; It is apparent that the alleged incident regarding Chris Brown is false,' they said.

They say Gines had repeatedly tried to jump on stage during Chris' performance at the club - and later tried to rush Chris in his roped-off VIP area.
She even threw her heels at security when they tried to eject her.
The owner simply said: 'Heat staff and security did what they had to do ... [Chris] was a complete gentleman.'
The young woman filed a police report with Anaheim Police Department, accusing the Turn Up the Music hitmaker of shoving her to the ground, which caused her to tear ligaments in her right knee.

A representative for Brown told Mail Online: 'Chris didn't do this. The club also says they are unaware of this happening. Everyone with Chris knows nothing about this.
'The girl has not come in in-person to The Anaheim Police Station and she would not go into details with the police regarding her injuries - she only told them that she was pushed. She said all of this over the phone. She also didn’t call the police at the time she's saying the alleged assault happened.'
Brown's representative added: 'We’re getting statement from the club. Turns out this person was wasted and threw her shoe at club security so they started filming her for liability reasons. Trying to get that footage.
