LOS ANGELES (AP) — Chris Brown is posting online videos declaring his innocence as police seek a warrant to search the singer’s home after receiving a call from a woman there seeking assistance.

Officials said the call came early Tuesday from outside the residence in the Tarzana neighborhood. They didn’t say what assistance the woman needed.

In one Instagram video Brown, waving a cigarette and looking at the camera, says if and when police get the search warrant, they’ll find nothing at the home. He dismissed TV reports that he was barricaded inside.

Officials say detectives hope to talk to Brown, the woman, and any witnesses.

Multiple media outlets are reporting that a woman claimed Brown pointed a gun at her before she was able to escape.
