TMZ has obtained the police report detailing the Jan. 27 brawl between singers Chris Brown and Frank Ocean in the parking lot of a Los Angeles recording studio.

According to the report, Brown punched Ocean on the side of his face during the one-to-two minute altercation over a parking spot. Afterward, he threatened to shoot him saying, "We can bust on you too." "Bust" is a slang term for "shoot."

The report also says that Ocean, who wrote about his love for another man last year, thought he heard someone use an anti-gay slur during the brawl.

Two member's of Brown's group then jumped into the fight to help the singer beat Ocean.

Brown, who may have lied about completing his court-ordered community service for the 2009 beating of Rihanna, faces no charges. The L.A. County Sheriff's Department said Monday that it planned to close the case.

Though the report says that Ocean initially wanted to prosecute Brown, the 25-year-old Grammy nominee seemed to forgive Brown in a recent Tumblr post.

AS A CHILD I THOUGHT IF SOMEONE JUMPED ME IT WOULD RESULT IN ME MURDERING OR MUTILATING A MAN. BUT AS A MAN I AM NOT A KILLER. I’M AN ARTIST AND A MODERN PERSON. I’LL CHOOSE SANITY. NO CRIMINAL CHARGES. NO CIVIL LAWSUIT. FORGIVENESS, ALBEIT DIFFICULT, IS WISDOM. PEACE, ALBEIT TRITE, IS WHAT I WANT IN MY SHORT LIFE. PEACE.
