Naomi Campbell injured in Paris mugging attempt

Naomi Campbell has been injured in an attempted mugging in Paris, reports say.

French police have confirmed that two men on a motorcycle tried to grab Naomi Campbell’s handbag as she sat in a car in the trendy Marais neighborhood on November 21.

US media reported that the British supermodel suffered a torn ligament in her left leg in the attack.

Naomi Campbell, 42, has since been pictured in a wheelchair with her leg in a brace.

A police source quoted by the UK’s Press Association said: “On November 21, two people on a motorbike attempted to steal Ms Campbell’s handbag as she sat in a vehicle on Rue de Moussy.

“She filed a complaint with police in the 4th arrondissement but she did not agree to a medical examination.”

A spokesman for Naomi Campbell declined to comment on the incident.
