LONDON — Supermodel Naomi Campbell was arrested at Heathrow Airport’s Terminal 5 on Thursday for allegedly spitting at a police officer, Sky News reported.
Police said a 37-year-old woman was arrested at the terminal on suspicion of assaulting police. The Metropolitan Police spokesman refused to identify the woman.
Campbell’s publicist, Selina Aponte, left Heathrow’s police station but told waiting reporters she had not seen the British model, who had been due to fly to Los Angeles.
In January 2007, Campbell pleaded guilty in New York City to misdemeanor assault for throwing her cellphone at her maid in a dispute over a missing pair of jeans. She was ordered to do community service and attend a two-day anger-management program. The Associated Press
