R&B singer Chris Brown was arrested Sunday night by Los Angeles cops for allegedly beating up a woman, and insiders identified the victim as his superstar girlfriend Rihanna.
Sources said Brown beat sexy superstar Rihanna, 20, after they fought in his car after a gala party.
"She got out of the car to walk home. He got out to stop her," said the source. "Things got physical. He hit her, possibly more than once. She had multiple bruises."
A security guard at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles told the Daily News Sunday night that he saw Rihanna being taken for treatment at the hospital.
"She's been released," said guard Rodderick Brown.
Rihanna and Chris Brown, 19, were both scheduled to perform at the Grammys, but pulled out at the last minute.
Rihanna's publicist Amanda Silverman claimed the "Umbrella" singer was only involved in a traffic mishap but "is fine."
The Los Angeles Police Department would not identify the woman who was attacked, citing confidentiality.
The sweet-faced "Run It!" singer turned himself in at a police precinct.
"[Brown] is a person of interest in the incident," said LAPD spokeswoman April Harding.
Police said the domestic violence and battery incident took place about 12:30 a.m. Sunday in the affluent neighborhood of Hancock Park.
"Brown and the woman were inside of a vehicle," Harding said. "According to the victim they became involved in an argument. . . . The argument escalated into an altercation."
By the time cops responded to the scene following a 911 call, Brown was gone.
Brown and Rihanna were seen earlier Saturday night at a pre-Grammy gala hosted by music mogul Clive Davis in Beverly Hills.
The two posed for pictures and were spotted kissing before they hopped into a waiting silver Lamborghini.
The pop world's power couple have been dating for over a year, and rumors have swirled that they were engaged.
Yet there were rumblings in recent days about troubles, and sources described the Barbados-born beauty as a clingy girlfriend who can't bear to have Brown out of her sights.
Brown's planned performance as the evening's second musical number was replaced by Justin Timberlake and Al Green.
