Chris Brown, Yella Beezy, and others have been named in a $50 million lawsuit from four alleged victims who claim the singer ordered his crew to beat them up.
According to a report TMZ published on Monday, July 22, attorney Tony Buzbee filed a lawsuit for his clients Larry Parker, Joseph Lewis, Charles Bush and Da Marcus Powell. All four men claim they were attacked while they were backstage at Brown's "11:11 Tour" stop in Fort Worth, Tx on Saturday, July 20. The alleged fight happened after the show while they waited for the artist in the VIP area of the Dickies Arena.
The alleged victims said they were there for 30 minutes before they decided to leave. On their way out, Bush went up to Brown to dap him up and congratulate him on the show. Brown seemed receptive and appreciative until someone from his entourage shouted, "Man you don't remember you two were beefing?"
"Oh yeah, we were. What's up, n****? I don't forget s**t," Brown said before he allegedly ordered his crew to attack Bush.
Bush was reportedly surrounded by 7 to 10 people from Brown's entourage before they began throwing punches and kicking him. At one point, Bush claimed someone from Brown's team known as Hood Boss tossed a chair at his head. Meanwhile, Parker claims Brown sent Yella Beezy and his crew, who were also backstage at the time, to beat him up.
