Chris Brown cleared on phone grab
Chris Brown will not face criminal charges for snatching a woman's mobile phone when she tried to take a photo of him outside a club.
Prosecutors in Florida say there is no evidence the singer tried to steal the phone, or that he deleted any photos.
"We are grateful for the decision and the thorough investigation," said Chris Brown's lawyer Mark Geragos.
Witnesses told prosecutors that about 30 fans gathered by the 24-year-old's limo after a gig in Miami in February.
At least one of them reached inside to take a photo, where Chris Brown was joined by at least two women.
The phone's owner, Christal Spann, claimed he used an offensive term for women and said "this will not run the website" when he grabbed the phone.
It was then seen being thrown out of the car.
If Chris Brown had been charged with a crime, it may have triggered a violation of his probation for assaulting Rihanna in 2009.
The pair recently worked together on a new song, 'Nobody's Business', and have been spotted out together.
