The pop music villain named Chris Brown — a man who literally lives in a goblin fortress — is the focus of an LAPD probe that could, reports a giddy TMZ, earn him some prison time.
Brown was apparently involved in a minor fender-bender earlier this week, and everything would have been just peachy had he simply exchanged his insurance information with the other driver like a normal citizen. Instead, Brown initially refused to trade info with the woman whose car he hit. When pressed, he offered her some fictional insurance info before abruptly leaving the scene of the accident. Leaving the scene of an accident without fully disclosing one’s info against the law, and, since Brown is currently on probation for assaulting Rihanna, he could be facing up to four years of prison.

Update: Chris Brown now claims that rumors of his impending arrest are untrue, and, moreover, that the other motorist is at fault for ducking Brown’s attempts to trade info. [TMZ]
