According to police records, Bobbi Kristina Brown was involved in a car crash that injured two people days before she was hospitalized, the AP reported.
Police in Roswell, Georgia, say Bobbi Kristina Brown, 21, was driving a Jeep Liberty on January 27 when she lost control, crossed into oncoming traffic and collided with another vehicle. A passenger in the Jeep and the other car’s driver were taken to the hospital.
Four days later, on January 31, Bobbi Kristina Brown was found unresponsive in her bathtub, and her family said she’s been “fighting for her life”.
Records also show that Nick Gordon called police in July 2013 saying Bobbi Kristina Brown had fallen and was unresponsive. The officer wrote that Whitney Houston’s daughter was disoriented and went to the hospital.
Bobbi Kristina Brown case is being investigated as a criminal matter, police in Georgia said on February 10.
The only child of the late Whitney Houston was face down and unresponsive in a bathtub at her Atlanta home on January 31.
Authorities in Roswell, a suburb of Atlanta, have been questioning people about the circumstances leading up to the discovery at Bobbi Kristina Brown’s home, but had not made clear the nature of their investigation.
“I can confirm that we have a criminal investigation ongoing,” Roswell Police Chief Rusty Grant told Reuters.
“From the beginning it has always been a criminal investigation.”
Few details have been released about the 21-year-old daughter of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown.
A family source said on February 10 that media reports suggesting Bobbi Kristina Brown would soon be taken off life support were not accurate. Her family previously has said she was fighting for her life.
A candlelight vigil on February 9 at an amphitheater in suburban Atlanta drew hundreds of people and prompted expressions of gratitude from family members – even as they asked for privacy.
“We continue to request privacy in this matter,” Bobby Brown said in a statement released through his lawyer, Christopher Brown, on February 10.
“We thank everyone that supported the vigil for Bobbi Kristina. God is hearing our prayers.”
The statement criticized erroneous media reports about her condition while maintaining that details needed to be kept private.
“This is a criminal investigation and the integrity of that process requires silence,” Christopher Brown said.
Police have said they responded to Bobbi Kristina Brown’s home in reference to a drowning.

Bobbi Kristina Brown’s family has released an official statement on Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown’s comatose daughter following conflicting reports regarding her status.
Although they don’t reveal anything specific about Bobbi Kristin Brown’s current condition, they specifically blast the “false reporting” several publications calling them out for writing articles based on unnamed “sources”.
“We support the candlelight vigil for Bobbi Kristina. The Brown family is amazed by the love and support from all that attended,” said Christopher Brown of Brown & Rosen LLC, legal counsel for Bobby Brown.
“However the false reports that continue to appear in print and on the internet are egregious, false and will be dealt with at an appropriate time. In particular, the false reporting of TMZ, The National Enquirer, The Atlanta Journal Constitution and the Daily Mail (UK) citing, police sources, family sources and Bobby Brown himself, will receive my attention. The desire to be <<first>> has clouded the judgment of many reporters as they forgo accuracy. This is a criminal investigation and the integrity of that process requires silence,” Christopher Brown added.
“We continue to request privacy in this matter. We thank everyone that supported the vigil for Bobbi Kristina. God is hearing our prayers,” he said.

A candlelight vigil for Bobbi Kristina Brown was held in the city of Riverdale, Georgia, as the 21-year-old daughter of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown clings to life at nearby Emory University Hospital in Atlanta.
“Forget that he [Bobby Brown] is a renowned artist. That her mama, the late Whitney, was a renowned artist. These [are] still people. They bleed and hurt like us,” said Riverdale mayor Dr. Evelyn Wynn-Dixon on Monday night.
“Sometime people ask you, or they say, <<I know how you feel>>. Sometime they don’t. Sometime they don’t know what it’s like if your child is on that ventilator. <<What do I do? If I take it off and she could have lived or do I let her stay on it and suffer?>> That’s a hard question for any parent,” the mayor told the large crowd of fans and concerned residents.
Evelyn Wynn-Dixon’s comments seemed to confirm what has been widely reported by the media that Bobbi Kristina Brown is connected to a ventilator, and her family faces a decision whether or not to remove her from life support.
Before the service began, organizers played several of Whitney Houston’s hit songs including I Have Nothing and I’m Every Woman.
Once the gathering got underway, a series of family friends and ministers addressed the crowd with words of encouragement including “we’re here to pick people up” and “continuous prayer is what is needed at this point.”
As the vigil came to a close, legendary R&B singer Tony Terry took the microphone and sang I Look To You, Whitney Houston’s last attempt at a comeback single before her death in 2012.
Several people in the crowd were brought to tears while Tony Terry belted out the stirring track, which is a call for help in a time of crisis.
Riverdale organized the “Shining A Light For Healing For Bobbi Kristina Brown” vigil to support the Brown family, because Bobby Brown was the first artist to perform at its amphitheater, a city official told several media outlets.

Bobby Brown is insisting that doctors at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta keep his comatose daughter Bobbi Kristina on life support, believing that a miracle can save her, TMZ reports.
Bobbi Kristina Brown, 21, has been in a medically induced coma since she was found submerged in a bathtub in her home on January 31.

According to new reports, Bobbi Kristina Brown might have been submerged for 15 minutes before being discovered in her bathtub.
Whitney Houston’s daughter is currently fighting for her life in an Atlanta hospital, but Roswell police continue to investigate the happenings that took place last Saturday morning that resulted in Bobbi Kristina Brown’s nearly drowning in her bathtub.
The E! News reported that while police aren’t considering this a criminal investigation just yet, they are actively looking into multiple people that might have been connected to Bobbi Kristina Brown.
Whitney Houston’s daughter received a visit on Saturday morning from a Comcast Xfinity cable technician, which prompted Max Lomas and Nick Gordon to go looking for her. 
Max Lomas apparently didn’t rush to the bathroom out of fear something was wrong with his friend’s girlfriend, but instead sought her out to get help for the cable guy. He entered when she didn’t respond to his knocks and calls.
“When Max found her he called for Nick,” a source told E! News.
Nick Gordon then proceeded to perform CPR on Bobbi Kristina Brown, 21. The source estimates that it could have been close to half-an-hour before any significant oxygen flow was returned into Bobbi Kristina Brown’s respiratory system when the paramedic arrived.
Max Lomas has told police that he doesn’t recall whether or not the bathroom door was locked at the time. But according to the source, investigators continue to press him on this because initially he had told them that the door was locked. Because he wasn’t sure if it was hard to open or actually locked, he allegedly changed his story to say he didn’t remember.
Investigators have interviewed both Maxwell Lomas and Nick Gordon multiple times and have been cooperating with authorities. The investigation has been “thorough and professional.” Police haven’t indicated any reason to believe foul play is involved.
Max Lomas and Nick Gordon partied together at an Atlanta nightclub the night before, but Bobbi Kristina Brown didn’t go with them, the source says. She was home when they returned around 6 a.m. Saturday morning. But police have been trying not only to piece together what happened after they came back but also what Bobbi Kristina Brown was doing and with whom in the hours prior.
Police have left open the possibility that someone was with her at home, and the source says it could have been Max Lomas’ girlfriend. The source also adds that police are skeptical to believe that only the cable guy, Max Lomas and Nick Gordon were in the house that morning, which is why they have been asking nearby employees whether or not they saw anyone hop Bobbi Kristina Brown’s fence.

A source close to Bobbi Kristin Brown’s family slammed rumors that they were gathering at the hospital for anything other than to keep vigil at her side, E! reported.
Bobbi Kristina Brown, the 21-year-old daughter of late Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, was placed in a medically induced coma and has been breathing with the help of a ventilator, family and friends said.

Nothing has changed, despite reports that are popping up and painting a more serious picture.
Fox News reported on February 4 that the situation is dire.
“It’s now a matter of when the family wants to let go and accept that she’s pretty much not going to make it,” a source told FOX411.
“They’ve left it up to the family as to how long they want to keep her alive.”
People magazine is also reporting that a doctor told Bobbi Kristina Brown’s family on February 6 that nothing more could be done.
“Everyone is coming to the hospital to say goodbye,” said a family member.
The Daily Mail reported that Bobbi Kristina Brown has been taken off life support.
However, her father, Bobby Brown, issued a statement late Thursday denying these reports.
“If we issued a statement every time the media published a false report regarding this matter, that’s all we would be doing 24 hours a day. This is false, just as is the vast majority of the other reporting that is currently taking place,” Bobby Brown said, according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution.
Bobbi Kristina Brown was born in 1993 during Whitney Houston’s marriage to Bobby Brown, which ended in divorce in 2007.

Bobbi Kristina Brown and her mother performed together on national TV in 2009, when the two sang My Love Is Your Love in Central Park on ABC’s Good Morning America.

Even before her mother’s death, videos of Bobbi Kristina Brown singing surfaced on YouTube and were quickly criticized by fans who felt her talent did not live up to Whitney Houston’s.
Bobbi Kristina Brown appeared on episodes of Lifetime’s brief reality show The Houstons: On Our Own, which followed her life after Whitney Houston’s death.
One of the show’s story lines revolved around Bobbi Kristina Brown’s relationship with Nick Gordon, who had lived with Whitney Houston and her daughter since he was 12 years old.
Bobbi Kristina Brown reportedly got engaged to Nick Gordon, and in January 2014, she tweeted out a picture of wedding rings along with the words: “#HappilyMarried• SO#Inlove.”
However, Bobby Brown attorney Christopher Brown said Bobbi Kristina Brown was never married to Nick Gordon.
