Spears` Ex-Boyfriend Faces Hit-And-Run Charges

Adnan Ghalib, a 36-year-old celebrity photographer, allegedly drove towards a man attempting to serve a restraining order against him.

A former boyfriend of pop singer Britney Spears was charged with three felonies Tuesday in connection with an alleged hit-and-run two weeks ago, the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office said.

Adnan Ghalib, a 36-year-old celebrity photographer, allegedly drove towards a man attempting to serve a restraining order against him Feb. 11, a statement said.

The victim jumped on the hood of Ghalib's Mercedes and hung on as the car swerved. He later fell off, breaking his wrist, and Ghalib allegedly drove away without stopping, according to the statement.

Ghalib has been charged with one felony count each of assault with a deadly weapon, battery, and hit-and-run. Prosecutors are asking bail to be set at $110,000. If convicted, Ghalib faces up to seven years in prison.

The restraining order was filed last month by Spears' father, Jamie Spears, who was granted temporary control of his troubled daughter's personal affairs last year. He also obtained an order against Sam Lutfi, the singer's former self-styled manager.
