Britney, who was a fan, tapped him on his back, right shoulder, asking to take a picture together. That’s when Damian Smith, the Director of Team Security for Victor’s new team, the San Antonio Spurs, backhanded her, causing her to fall to the ground.
Britney then got herself together and went to her table. According to TMZ, Smith went to the table and apologized, which she seemingly accepted.
However, after Britney’s security team spent time with Smith, they filed a police report with the Metropolitan Police Department, alleging battery.
Police has now launched a criminal investigation on the matter.
