What do you expect a guy born on Cinco de Mayo?
The 32-year-old influencer’s birthday shindig was a real jungle! The party was so crazy, that the LAPD came and shut it all down.
Reports note that he had over 500 people at his jam — and he made sure that everyone had their fair share of music, booze, and good energy. That was until someone had called the Law on the party, who arrived at 2 AM on Thursday, May 6th.
LAPD Response
Between 300 to 500 cars were parked near his Citrus Ridge home in the hillside San Fernando Valley community of Tarzana.
One of the things that annoyed the neighbors who reached out to the police, was that cars were double-parked (all night). Those double-parked received a ticket for breaking the law.
The crowd was also dispersed without incident, and there were no arrests, officials said. LAPD noted that everyone was cooperative
News reports did not indicate whether police cited COVID-19 restrictions, and neither the LAPD nor Brown responded to HuffPost’s requests for comment.
The area’s city councilman, Bob Blumenfield, acknowledged the risk parties pose amid the pandemic, saying in a statement:
As we’ve made so much progress against COVID-19, we still need to do everything possible to get vaccinated, be responsible and make sure that more people don’t get sick. Even before the pandemic, massive house parties like this have been an issue throughout the city, severely disrupting our communities. But the reality is that we’re still in the midst of this pandemic and irresponsible events like this have the power to create more outbreaks and set back the incredible gains made.
Los Angeles County has averaged 288 new COVID-19 cases a day over the last week, and roughly 48% of residents have received at least one dose of a vaccine, according to the Los Angeles Times’ coronavirus tracker.
Commotions
Previously, Brown caused commotion at the same home when he held a yard sale in November 2019.
After posting a flyer for the event on his social media accounts, hundreds flocked to buy some merchandise.
The sale ultimately was a success, as reports noted that people left “with armfuls of stuff.” One man told reporters at the time that he had spent $470 on “old school Tommy, old school Nike, some Supreme, some limited-edition dunks, stuff like that.”
Party Pics and Video
Pictures and videos leaked out on social media gave people a glimpse into what the party was like, It seems that Breezy might have been celebrating more than just his birthday.
The “Go Crazy” artists has multiple nominations at this upcoming Billboard Awards: Top R&B Artist, Top R&B Male Artist, Top R&B Album, Top Radio Song, Top Collaboration, Top R&B Song, and Top Hot 100 Song.
