NEW YORK - Bobbi Kristina Brown is fighting for her life, according to a statement from the Houston family Monday.
Police said the 21-year-old daughter of Whitney Houston and R&B singer Bobby Brown was taken to a hospital Saturday after she was found face down and unresponsive in a bathtub in a suburban Atlanta townhome.
The statement said that Brown is surrounded by immediate family and that the family was requesting privacy. No more details were provided.
