Kelly Osbourne Arrested For Assault

 

Kelly Osbourne, 24, has been arrested for allegedly slapping gossip columnist Zoe Griffin in a London nightclub last summer after she wrote an article mocking Kelly’s model boyfriend Luke Worrall.

Osbourne was released on bail as inquiries continue.  She is scheduled to return to see authorities in March.

The piece in question was published last August in the U.K. paper The Mirror, where Griffin wrote that she was approached in Punk nightclub by Osbourne, who took issue with a story Griffin had written saying Worrall had to ask how an earthquake was caused.

Griffin quoted her saying:

“I have an issue with you. My boyfriend knows what an earthquake is and everyone has been laughing at him and he’s upset.”

Griffin added:

“That’s when I felt a hard slap to my right cheekbone.”

A statement by a Scotland Yard spokeswoman said:

“I can confirm that a 24-year-old woman attended a central London police station by appointment at 3pm on January 2.”

“She was arrested for common assault relating to an alleged incident in Soho in the early hours of 29th August 2008.

“She was bailed to attend a central London police station on a date in March.”
