Diaw says he was knocked unconscious by the repeated blows from Brown and suffered cuts to his head and a torn ligament in his leg. Chris hasn’t been back to London since, and Diaw says police have the security footage of the altercation.
Diaw claims that he thought Brown was coming over to dap him up before he struck him with the bottle as the two were friendly for years, with the record label executive also dabbling in the nightlife scene across Europe.
