In a shocking turn of events, pop singer Britney Spears has reportedly filed a police report, claiming that she was struck in the face by a security guard at a Las Vegas restaurant. The incident allegedly occurred on Wednesday night, involving Victor Wembanyama, a highly anticipated French basketball player, and Damian Smith, the director of team security for the San Antonio Spurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to sources, Spears, accompanied by her husband Sam Asghari and two others, spotted Wembanyama at Catch restaurant in the Aria hotel. Eager to capture a memorable moment, Spears approached the young basketball prodigy and tapped him on the shoulder, requesting a photo together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the encounter took a violent turn when Smith, the security guard, purportedly backhanded Spears, causing her to lose her glasses and fall to the floor. Despite an apology from Smith at her table, Spears later decided to file a police report with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD), alleging battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The LVMPD responded to the incident on July 5, documenting the altercation on a police report. At present, no arrests or citations have been made, and the department has refrained from providing further details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This distressing incident has left fans and the public concerned about Spears’ well-being, particularly in light of her recent battles with the conservatorship that ended in November 2021. The pop icon has been rebuilding her life and reconnecting with her mother after a tumultuous period marred by allegations of mistreatment within her family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wembanyama, a towering figure at seven feet four inches, was drafted by the San Antonio Spurs as the team’s first overall pick just last month. The rising basketball star is set to make his professional debut during the NBA’s Summer League in Las Vegas, which is slated to begin this Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

While none of the parties involved have made public statements regarding the alleged altercation, the incident has undoubtedly raised questions about the security measures in place for high-profile individuals. It remains unclear whether Spears intends to pursue criminal charges against Smith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As fans eagerly await more information, concern for Britney Spears’ physical and emotional well-being is at the forefront. This incident serves as a stark reminder of the challenges she has faced throughout her career, and the ongoing scrutiny she endures even after her conservatorship’s conclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the midst of these troubling circumstances, Spears continues to navigate her personal life with the support of her husband, Sam Asghari, whom she married in June 2022. As the legal process unfolds, many hope that justice will prevail, and that Spears can find solace and security in her newfound freedom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
