Diddy has had yet another lawsuit filed against him, this time for allegedly leading a crew on a dangerous car chase to attack a man in New York City nearly three decades ago.
The suit was filed in federal court last Sunday (November 3) by DeWitt Gilmore, an Atlanta man who bills himself as “an author, entrepreneur, and public figure.”
In the lawsuit, Gilmore claims that one evening in summer 1996, he was getting into his car after leaving a nightclub when Diddy and some “associates” pulled up and began taunting and threatening him.
Things escalated, the complaint continues, when some of those associates allegedly began waving guns around, and shots were fired.
“Fearing for his life, Plaintiff Gilmore, with…witnesses, were aggressively chased through the dark city streets and managed to evade the scene by accelerating through traffic, narrowly escaping a potentially deadly ambush,” the suit continues.
Gilmore says he brought the suit after recently reconnecting with a witness from that night after decades of separation.
“This reconnection brought forth new insight and testimonial evidence surrounding the events of that night, underscoring the intensity of the encounter with Sean Combs,” he writes in the suit.
“[The witness’s] account serves as recently discovered evidence, significant enough to reopen the case beyond the usual statute of limitations due to the unique circumstances of intimidation and safety concerns that delayed earlier action.”
Gilmore is asking for $5 million for “emotional distress, physical harm, lost opportunities, and reputational damage.”
Diddy’s representatives told HipHopDX regarding Gilmore’s suit: “As we’ve said before, Mr. Combs cannot respond to every new publicity stunt, even in response to claims that are facially ridiculous. Mr. Combs and his legal team have full confidence in the facts and the integrity of the judicial process. In court, the truth will prevail: that these accusations are pure fiction.”
Just one day before Gilmore’s suit was filed, Diddy’s key to the city of Miami Beach, FL was officially revoked.
TMZ reported on Saturday (November 2), that Miami Beach Mayor Steven Meiner and the city commission voted unanimously on the decision at an in-person hearing earlier this week.
Commissioners Joe Magazine, David Suarez, Tanya Katzoff Bhatt, and Alex Fernandez were sponsors.
Diddy was honored with the ceremonial key in 2015.
