Chris Brown Sued for $15 Million by Security Guard Over Alleged Backstage Assault


A security guard has sued Chris Brown, claiming he was injured trying to stop an alleged assault the singer committed after a concert.

Chris Brown is facing a second lawsuit over an assault he and his entourage allegedly carried out backstage against four concertgoers in Fort Worth, Texas last weekend, with a security guard hired for the event now claiming that he was injured trying to stop the violence. Like Monday’s suit, the new complaint names Brown, several members of his entourage, and concert promoter Live Nation as defendants, with the listed causes of action being assault and battery, negligence/gross negligence, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. “This was an unprovoked attack and Chris Brown not only directed it, he threw the first punch,” Overpeck’s attorney Tony Buzbee, who is also representing the plaintiffs in the original complaint, tells Rolling Stone in a statement.
