Chris Tweeted (and then deleted) a message alluding to the fact he'd been hit with a bottle, and then uploaded a picture of his gashed chin.
As legend goes, Drake and Rihanna hooked up, which caused a wave of jealousy and verbal attacks between Chris and Drake. Well, if the singer's rep is to be believed, Chris, girlfriend Karrueche Tran and a group of his friends were "victims" of a "brutal attack" and all parties "sustained several injuries."
They've allegedly gotten the NYPD involved, and hope to prove Drake's crew were the assailants in the late night glass storm, not the other way around.
