ATLANTA (AP) — An attorney says it was his client who found Bobbi Kristina Brown face-down in a bathtub last week and called 911, not Brown’s partner.

Attorney Philip Holloway said Wednesday that 24-year-old Maxwell Lomas of Duluth, Georgia — not Nick Gordon — found Brown on Jan. 31 at a townhome in suburban Atlanta. Lomas and the 25-year-old Gordon were both listed in the police report as being at the home.

Brown is the only child between Bobby Brown and the late Whitney Houston. Her relatives have said she is in a hospital “fighting for her life.”

Lomas was arrested on Jan. 15 and charged with weapons offenses, marijuana possession and possession of an anxiety drug. Holloway says Lomas pleaded not guilty and the arrest is unrelated to the discovery of Brown in the tub.
