Second man charged over ‘bottle attack’ involving singer Chris Brown

Chris Brown and rapper Omololu Akinlolu were charged with grievous bodily harm for an attack at London's Tape nightclub in February 2023.
The charges follow an unprovoked assault on music producer Abraham Diaw during Brown’s UK tour, with police releasing details in court on Friday.
The attack, involving Brown striking Diaw multiple times with a bottle and chasing him, was caught on surveillance footage in a crowded Mayfair nightclub.
Brown, 36, was arrested in Manchester, did not enter a plea, and remains in custody pending a court hearing on June 13 coinciding with his world tour start.
Akinlolu, 38, known as Hoody Baby, faces the same charge and is due to appear in Manchester Magistrates' Court, while Brown’s upcoming tour faces uncertainty.
