Leona Lewis was at a book signing today when an unknown man punched her
in her face.
According to various news reports, Lewis was
signing autographs and posing for pictures with fans when a man from the line
stepped up and punched her in the head. He was quickly restrained by security
guards and later arrested by police. The Associated
Press reports that London's Metropolitan police said a
29-year-old man had been arrested on suspicion of assault and was being held in
custody. "Leona was the victim of an unprovoked
attack," the singer's rep said in a statement. "The police were
called immediately and medical attention has been sought. Leona is
understandably shaken and apologizes to the fans she was unable to meet and
complete signings." Photographs show
Lewis leaving Waterstone's bookstore with sunglasses on and a pained expression
on her face. Reports indicate she was taken to a doctor as a precautionary
measure.
