LOS ANGELES — R&B singer Chris Brown has been arrested and charged for assault with a deadly weapon after a nearly 11-hour standoff with authorities, according to the Los Angeles Police Department. <br /> <br />A “cooperative” Brown was transported to the homicide/robbery division, the LAPD said. <br /> <br />LAPD arrived at the Brown’s L.A. mansion after getting a call from a woman around 3 a.m. Tuesday morning who said she had been threatened by the singer, according to ABC News. <br /> <br />Police spent much of the morning outside the residence waiting to obtain a search warrant. Cops went in around 1 p.m. and began searching the home for the weapon said to have been used to threaten a woman, according to the L.A. Times. <br /> <br />Baylee Curran alleges that Brown pointed a gun at her during an argument before she ran outside to call police, the L.A. Times reported. <br /> <br />Curran told the L.A. Times that she and a business associate had gone to Brown’s house to talk about future projects. <br /> <br />At the time, a man was displaying diamond jewelry inside the house, she said, which was when she began looking at a diamond cross necklace. <br /> <br />Brown then allegedly approached and told her to back away from the necklace and started cussing her out. <br /> <br />“That’s when Chris pulled his gun and told me to ‘Get out.’ He said ‘I’m sick of you girls, get the F out,’” Curran told the L.A. Times. <br /> <br />Brown took to Instagram and made several videos denying any wrongdoing while police were waiting for their search warrant. <br /> <br />Brown was eventually arrested and transported to county jail.
