Rapper Chris Brown has denied claims that he assaulted a woman in a club over the weekend by pushing her over.
The Grammy-winning singer was alleged to have knocked the 24-year-old to the ground at the Heat Ultra Lounge in Anaheim, California, leaving her with torn knee ligaments, reported Digital Spy.
Brown said in a message on Twitter which has since been deleted, "I don't usually comment on press reports, but I didn't do anything. Had a great show at powerhouse and a positive one."
Heat's owner Mike Joher has also vehemently denied the allegations, saying that after an investigation into the woman's claims, "It is apparent that the alleged incident regarding Chris Brown is false."
Joher alleged that the woman had spent most of the night "persistently trying to rush" the musician, adding that her efforts to get close to Brown were unsuccessful due to "heavy security" around the area of the club he was in.
