Las Vegas police have confirmed to ABC News that Brown is a suspect in the investigation but won’t release any additional details.  However, TMZ reports Brown allegedly punched a woman at the nightclub early Saturday morning after she took a photo of him with her mobile phone, hitting her in the eye.

Brown pleaded guilty to assault in June 2009 after he punched and injured then-girlfriend and fellow singer Rihanna in the face the previous February.  His probation in that case ended last March.
