P Diddy back in court

CMU is reporting:
P Diddy was in court yesterday to deny allegations he ordered his security
people to "rough up" a reporter after he questioned him about whether or not
he contributed to the death of rapper Notorious BIG in any way. Journalist Roger Mills claims he suffered injuries and had equipment damaged when Diddy's people confronted him after a difficult interview back in 1999. He is suing for an undisclosed amount of damages.
Diddy told the Detroit court room that he did not recall much about the
interview, except that "I knew it was something just about, as far as if I had any role or any feeling about [BIG's] murder". He added "I just remember
ending the interview", stressing no instructions were given to take physical
action against Mills.
In a statement Diddy's people told reporters: "This is an example of another
nuisance suit seeking to take advantage of Mr Combs' celebrity status. In
fact, this individual admits that Mr Combs was nowhere in sight at the time
of the alleged altercation. Mr Combs will continue to fight these baseless
lawsuits and has not only been successful in the past, but has been awarded
costs."
