Chris Brown Checks Into Rehab For Anger Management After Assault Arrest

Chris Brown has checked into rehab for anger management issues two days after he was arrested for assault in Washington.

"Chris Brown has elected to enter a rehab facility," his representative Nicole Perna said on Tuesday.

The rep added, "His goal is to gain focus and insight into his past and recent behavior, enabling him to continue the pursuit of his life and his career from a healthier vantage point."

According to TMZ, Brown's attorney Mark Geragos dropped the RnB star off at a facility in Malibu.

The rehab move comes after Brown was arrested for allegedly punching a guy in the nose during a fight at the wee hours on Sunday near the W Hotel in Washington, D.C.

He's charged with misdemeanor simple assault, reduced from an initial felony arrest, and is due back in court November 25.

The "Fine China" singer is still on probation stemming from a 2009 battery case involving his then-girlfriend Rihanna. It's reported that the Probation Department will likely determine that the 24-year-old violated his probation, which is supposed to end on August 25, 2014.

He could be sentenced to as much as 4 years in prison if found guilty.
