Brown got out of the vehicle and proceeded to break both the front driver and passenger side windows. No was one injured in the incident.
Brown was arrested on Feb. 8 after getting into a third altercation with Rihanna while driving in Los Angeles’ Hancock Park neighborhood. On Tuesday, he was formally sentenced to five years of probation and six months of community labor after pleading guilty in June to one count of felony assault.
