"&lt;img alt=\"0615-tmz-chris-brown\" src=\"http://ll-media.tmz.com/2012/06/15/0615-tmz-chris-brown-2.jpg\" /&gt;One of &lt;strong&gt;Chris Brown&lt;/strong&gt;'s homies was throwing gang signs and making death threats at &lt;strong&gt;Drake&lt;/strong&gt;'s entourage in the moments before the NYC nightclub brawl ... this according to several witnesses. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eyewitnesses say ... Chris had been hanging out at his own VIP table with a posse of 16 other guys ... one of whom was a man with dreadlocks who was throwing gang signs and screaming at Drake's table. Witnesses say this man was the primary instigator in the brawl that would follow. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Among the verbal taunts, we're told the man yelled out, \"Somebody's gonna die.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We're told the man also directed some of his anger at Drake's friend &lt;strong&gt;Meek Mill&lt;/strong&gt; -- saying, \"F**k you, we're gonna kill you n*gga.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the man continued to spit venom, witnesses say Chris stood up and embraced him ... as if to say, \"This is my guy.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... it's possible the threats were captured on tape. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's the rub -- Brown's friend was acting as if he was associated with a gang .... which is significant because Chris is not allowed to associate with gang members as part of his probation in the Rihanna beating case. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So far, no arrests have been made."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
