Naomi Campbell does it again

LONDON – British supermodel Naomi Campbell – currently facing assault charges in the United States – was released on police bail early Thursday over claims she attacked her drugs counsellor in London.

The 36-year-old catwalk star was arrested at an address in the Westminster area of central London at 12:20 GMT on Wednesday and taken for questioning. She was freed on bail shortly after 1:00 am Thursday and told to report to police on an undisclosed date later this month, London’s Metropolitan Police said without naming Campbell.Campbell’s spokesman said late Wednesday that he believed there had been a “misunderstanding”, adding: “We are sure it will all be sorted out when the police investigate.”The claims appeared in a front-page story of The Sun tabloid, which said the unnamed “shaken therapist” walked into a police station and said Campbell had scratched her all over her face, prompting a raid on the star’s home.Another of Campbell’s former employees has filed a separate lawsuit, accusing the model of personal injury, employment discrimination and assault, prompting claims from her lawyer that she was a victim for opportunists.In an effort to control her temper, she at one point booked herself into an anger-management clinic in Arizona.Nampa-AFPShe was freed on bail shortly after 1:00 am Thursday and told to report to police on an undisclosed date later this month, London’s Metropolitan Police said without naming Campbell.Campbell’s spokesman said late Wednesday that he believed there had been a “misunderstanding”, adding: “We are sure it will all be sorted out when the police investigate.”The claims appeared in a front-page story of The Sun tabloid, which said the unnamed “shaken therapist” walked into a police station and said Campbell had scratched her all over her face, prompting a raid on the star’s home.Another of Campbell’s former employees has filed a separate lawsuit, accusing the model of personal injury, employment discrimination and assault, prompting claims from her lawyer that she was a victim for opportunists.In an effort to control her temper, she at one point booked herself into an anger-management clinic in Arizona.Nampa-AFP
