Singer Chris Brown reportedly "sucker punched" a photographer early Monday morning at a Tampa-area club, according to police reports.
The incident happened at about 1 a.m. Monday at AJA Channelside, located at 290 Meridian Ave. S.
According to a police report, Brown and his crew came into the club for a paid "showing."
Bennie L. Vines Jr., who works as a photographer for the club, said he was taking photos when Brown punched him "for allegedly taking photos," a report states.
Brown left the scene by the time Tampa Police officers were contacted and arrived at the club.
The photographer suffered a minor laceration to his lip, but he refused medical attention at the scene. He told police he wants to prosecute.
The investigation is ongoing.
