Neighbours report Chris Brown to police for 'disturbing the peace'

Chris Brown's neighbours reportedly called the police on the pop star on Wednesday (11May16) for allegedly speeding around their lawns on an all-terrain vehicle (ATV).

The Loyal singer and his friend were reportedly racing up and down the street, making figure eights and driving across lawns in his Tarzana neighbourhood of Los Angeles on Wednesday evening, according to TMZ.com.

His neighbours complained about the noise and threatened to call police officers if they didn't stop, but they kept driving the vehicles. The neighbour reported the incident and when officers arrived, Chris was back inside his home but refused to come to the door to speak with them.

The person who answered the door suggested the officers speak to his lawyer, according to the report. They are considering going to the Los Angeles City Attorney's office and recommending prosecution for the crime of disturbing the peace.

This could be the latest potential legal issue with Chris - he was recently hit with a trademark infringement lawsuit for his fashion range, and also got a restraining order against a fan who trespassed on his Woodland Hills property twice.

Chris, 25, is set to open up about his past troubles, including his 2009 assault of then-girlfriend Rihanna, in an upcoming documentary Welcome To My Life.

"I went from being on top of the world, number one songs, being kinda like America's sweetheart to being public enemy number one," an emotional Chris says in the documentary trailer. "I felt like a... monster... I was thinking about suicide and everything else. I wasn't sleeping, I wasn't eating. I just was getting high."
