Sources tell Usmagazine.com that Rihanna (real name: Robin Fenty) is the alleged victim in the felony battery investigation involving her boyfriend, singer Chris Brown.
On Sunday, around 6:30 p.m., Brown, 19, turned himself in to Los Angeles police and was officially booked at 7:41 p.m. for making criminal threats.
Brown posted $50,000 bail and was released.
The case is being presented to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office; additional charges may be filed.
Brown — who has hired lawyer Mark Geragos (who defended convicted murderer Scott Peterson and Michael Jackson during his child molestation trial) — is due in court March 5.

The incident occurred early Sunday morning near Hancock Park in L.A.
Police confirmed late Sunday that an unidentified woman phoned 911 and claimed she got into a fight with the singer and he attacked her.
Police say the woman had visible injuries. When officers arrived, they found the victim, but Brown had already left the scene, police say.
Both Brown and Rihanna pulled out of Sunday’s Grammy Awards at the last minute.
