No charges will be filed following a brief investigation into the
altercation this week involving pop star Britney Spears,
San Antonio Spurs rookie
Victor Wembanyama and a member of the player's security team,
Las Vegas police said Friday after determining she inadvertently "hit herself in the face."
Spears had filed a police report, alleging battery and saying she was struck in the face by the security guard when she tried to approach Wembanyama near a restaurant at the ARIA hotel and casino Wednesday night.
According to a copy of the police report obtained by ESPN, Spears noticed Wembanyama and went to tap him on the shoulder. Spears' manager, Cade Hudson, also told police that a member of Wembanyama's security team struck Spears in the face, knocking her glasses off. However, a member of Spears' security team described the physical interaction as the pop star having her hand pushed off Wembanyama, describing the move as a standard response by security.
The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said its investigation is over and that "no charges will be filed against the person involved."
