Leona Lewis Punched At ‘Dreams’ Book Signing In London
By Roberta | October 14, 2009
Leona Lewis was signing copies of her new autobiography, titled, “Dreams” at Waterstones book store at Piccadilly in central London.
One guy was there who apparently did not appreciate her or her book, and proceeded to punch her lights out.
Scotland Yard was on the scene, as police have arrested the man over the “alleged” assault. A Scotland Yard spokesman said, “The female did not require hospital treatment - we are at the scene.”
In a statement, Waterstones said, “There was an incident at our Leona Lewis signing this afternoon and the event was immediately stopped.” Even though the event was halted, the store did not shut down due to the incident.
A fan on the scene said, “My brother saw the whole incident. He walked up there with the book, she signed it and, as she looked up, he just punched her. He actually heard the impact.”
Another witness said, “She was running out with her hand over her eye and I just saw a man on the floor. Suddenly the security all jumped on him and they were trying to pull him out and he was just laughing, he thought it was funny.”
So sad, I feel for her. That had to be horrifying.

Sounds like the guy has a mental problem. Nobody in their right mind attacks like that without some provocation.
