Chris Brown Leaves Rehab Facility For Outpatient Help
Chris Brown checked into a rehabilitation center last month to work on his anger management issues but now he has decided to leave a live in facility to be treated in an outpatient setting.
Brown, the 24-year-old singer-songwriter, was taken to a rehabilitation center by his longtime lawyer Mark Geragos, one day after being released from a Washington D.C. jail where he spent 36 hours last month. The singer was arrested after he was accused of breaking the nose of Parker Isaac Adams, 20, who allegedly attempted to sneak into a photograph that Brown was taking with two women, according to E! News reports.
Now, Brown's representatives are speaking about an alternate method that he chose to seek help.
"Chris is continuing his rehab program as an outpatient and is also completing his community service in the Los Angeles area," Brown's representative told E!. "He appreciates all of your encouragement and support."
The singer made national headlines after he physically assaulted ex-girlfriend and singer Rihanna in 2009, which he is currently serving probation for. Since that assault, Brown has made headlines for allegedly engaging in other physical altercations including those with fellow entertainers Frank Ocean and Drake.

"Chris Brown has elected to enter a rehab facility," Brown's representative told E! News. "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."
