Now the standard Britney Spears story. She will be forced to pay a minimum of $136 in towing fees if she wants to get her car back, after police impounded the vehicle after she got a flat tire on Monday night.

A source says, “When the kids arrived, she says Jayden’s legs were covered in bruises. He’s a toddler and learning to walk so it’s not that surprising - but Britney was terrified he was being abused.
