Ian Brown

Ian Brown was arrested yesterday for allegedly attacking his wife.

The former Stone Roses singer was taken into custody on suspicion of assault after neighbors alerted police to a disturbance at his west London home. When officers arrived, Fabiola Quiroz, the mother of Ian’s 9-year-old son, told officers her husband had abused her.

“A 46-year-old man was arrested at the address and taken to a police station,” a police spokesman confirmed. The “Stellify” singer was later released on bail until a hearing next month.

This is not the first time Ian has been in trouble with the law. He was arrested for assault in 2005, but the charges were later dropped. In 1998, he was jailed for four months following an air rage incident. The singer threatened to chop off flight attendant Christine Cooper’s hands with plastic cutlery on a British Airways flight between London and Paris after she tried to sell him alcohol.

“I’ve not drunk alcohol since 1999. I’ve never drunk a can of beer, and I haven’t had a pint since 1990. I think that surprises people,” Ian said back in 2006.
