Naomi Campbell was mugged in Paris
Supermodel Naomi Campbell sustained a leg injury after she was mugged in Paris, France, according to a new report.
The British beauty was hailing a cab in the French capital when she was violently attacked by thugs, who left her with a torn ligament.
Campbell went to police to report the incident, which happened over
a month ago, before boarding a private jet to Vail, Colorado, where
she received treatment from a top orthopaedic surgeon.
A source tells the New York Post gossip column Page Six, "It was
terrifying. Naomi believes the assailant had been watching her,
casing her out, and waited for a moment to strike when she was
alone. She was attacked in the street as she hailed a cab, and
robbed.
"Her leg was injured as she was violently pushed to the ground. She
was understandably very upset and shaken up."
Campbell was first spotted using a wheelchair last month (Dec12)
but she has kept quiet about how she was hurt.
She is now believed to be recovering in Miami, Florida, ahead of
the launch of her new TV show The Face next month (Feb13).
