Trey Songz has declined to accept a plea deal that would have reduced a felony assault charge stemming from a concert appearance in Detroit to a misdemeanor.
The Detroit Free Press reports the plea deal would place the 32-year-old Songz on two years’ probation as part of his sentencing.
Songz was charged in December with aggravated assault and assaulting a police officer. Authorities said microphones and speakers were thrown from the Joe Louis Arena stage. A police sergeant also was punched.
Police have said the singer became upset when told to end his performance.
The case is heading to trial.
