Chris Brown flew into a rage after his 'Good Morning America' interview Tuesday morning.

Chris Brown's reputation may be tarnished, but his midtown meltdown has yet to blemish his criminal record.

ABC has decided not to press any charges against the R&B singer following his volatile meltdown backstage at "Good Morning America" on Tuesday, TMZ.com reported.

Police arrived to ABC studios shortly after Brown threw a tantrum following his interview with co-host Robin Roberts, who asked him about his infamous 2009 attack on former girlfriend Rihanna. The 21-year-old singer stormed into his dressing room screaming and smashed a window - sending shards of glass falling onto the streets of Times Square below ? and was pictured storming out of building shirtless.

Brown, who is still on probation for the assault on RiRi, would be facing time behind bars if a judge deemed his act of vandalism in violation of his probation.

"Probation isn't looking into anything with regards to Chris Brown," Kerri Webb, spokeswoman for the Los Angeles County Probation Department, told the Daily News. "There hasn't been any arrest or conviction. So unless someone files a police report or engages law enforcement in some way, there isn't anything for us to do here."

The buzzed-about incident didn't seem to effect Brown, who was spotted blowing off some stream during an afternoon pick-up basketball game in the West Village's crowded West 4th St. courts.

But the crooner couldn't escape the fallout from his outrageous behavior and was heckled by bystanders on the street.

"Chris Brown getting trash-talked by the crowd. Missing every shot," Huffington Post contributing editor David Weiner posted on his Plixi page, along with photos of Brown on the court. "At least he's wearing a shirt now. No sign of broken glass, either."
