Chris Brown allegedly hit a photographer at a club in Tampa early Monday. Brown reportedly “sucker punched” Bennie L. Vines, a photographer at AJA Channelside, a nightclub hosting an afterparty that the singer had been paid to attend. The club apologized for the incident in a post on the club’s Facebook page. “Incidents like the ones caused by Chris Brown and his team are very sad to see. As everyone witnessed he showed up to the club at around 1:30 a.m.,” the post read. “After only a few minutes of being there, Chris Brown himself and his team assaulted our club photographer and proceeded to walk out of the venue.” Cops were alerted to the incident but Brown had left by the time they arrived. Although Vines refused medical attention, he plans to press charges for a cut he suffered to his lip.
