(CNN) Singer Chris Brown was arrested after his concert Thursday night on a felony battery charge stemming from an incident that occurred more than a year ago. 
 
 Brown, 29, was arrested in West Palm Beach after performing at the Coral Sky Ampitheatre at the South Florida Fairgrounds, according to Tampa police spokesman Stephen Hegarty. 
 
 The battery charge was connected to an April 2017 incident in a Tampa club, according to Hegarty, where Brown allegedly punched a man who photographed him without his permission.

 WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Singer Chris Brown walked off stage after his concert in Florida and into the hands of waiting sheriff's deputies, who arrested him on a felony battery charge and booked him into the Palm Beach County Jail. 
 
 A sheriff's spokeswoman said the entertainer was released after posting $2,000 bond on the battery charge issued by the sheriff's office in Hillsborough County. No details about the allegations in the arrest warrant were immediately available.

 Brown had a show at the Coral Sky Amphitheatre in West Palm Beach Thursday where several officers were waiting in the wings -- and when Chris wrapped -- he was arrested. 
 
 Law enforcement sources tell us Brown was arrested for an outstanding felony arrest warrant in Tampa. The warrant was issued in connection with an alleged attack at a Tampa nightclub last year. Chris was in the DJ booth when he allegedly attacked a photographer. 
 
 Chris bailed out a couple hours later for $2,000. 
 
 Brown's been on the road since early last month and has been keeping a low profile. He recently celebrated his daughter Royalty's 4th birthday with baby mama Nia Guzman.
– Singer Chris Brown's nationwide tour included an unusual pit stop: the Palm Beach County Jail. He was scheduled to perform a 7pm Thursday concert at West Palm Beach's Coral Sky Amphitheatre, and the AP reports that after he was finished he "walked off stage ... and into the hands of waiting sheriff's deputies." He was arrested on a felony battery charge and released after posing bail. The sheriff's office didn't provide details, but CNN reports the arrest was in connection with an outstanding out-of-county warrant from 2017. TMZ speculates that it's all tied to allegations that Brown attacked a photographer in Tampa last year. "All indications point to that case."
