Mel B being investigated by police after male model claims she punched him twice at fashion show when he asked for a photo
The Spice Girl was reported to US cops by the model, who claimed she struck him in the chest with her right hand when he asked for a second photo — as he didn’t like the first one
MEL B is under investigation by US cops after being accused of punching a male model twice, after he asked for a photo.
The Spice Girl, 43, was reported to LAPD by Dujuan Thomas on Sunday, who claimed she hit him at a hotel fashion show in Los Angeles the previous day.
The model claims she struck him in the chest with her right hand when he asked for a second photo with the star — having already taken one which he didn’t like.
In his report he said he encountered Mel again later in the evening after the fashion show which he walked in, when she hit him in the chest a second time.
Local authorities are now looking into the case. Dujuan did not report any injuries.
He recorded Mel in a video moments before he claims the second incident took place and she can be seen turning around to confront him before the clip cuts out.
