Chris and Rihanna Inspire PSA
The alleged altercation between Rihanna and Chris Brown has inspired a public service announcement about dating violence.
DoSomething.org produced the piece featuring two young actors recreating the events that are said to have occurred on the morning of February 8 inside Chris Brown's rented Lamborghini.
The details of the video come from the Los Angeles Police affidavit that claims Brown punched, bit and choked Rihanna until she was nearly unconscious.
The brief video is available on YouTube and also features a powerful statistic about dating abuse saying "1 in 3 teens is abused in a relationship." DoSomething.org is also promoting free bracelets to spread awareness on abuse in relationships.
