Bad-boy Brown in ‘hit & run’

Hotheaded singer Chris Brown found himself in more trouble yesterday when he was charged with a hit-and-run and driving without a license for an accident last month in Los Angeles.

The bad boy, who is still on probation for beating former gal pal Rihanna in 2009, allegedly rear-ended a Mercedes on May 21 and then refused to provide his license.

The LA city attorney said Brown faces up to six months in jail on each misdemeanor charge.

Brown took to Twitter yesterday to defend himself against the charges.

“I have a valid drivers license and I gave the woman the right info. She saw cameras and wanted to make a scene,” Brown tweeted.

The Grammy winner sparred with rapper Drake in a nightclub brawl last year, and beefed with singer Frank Ocean outside an LA recording studio in January.
