Campbell Arrested
Naomi Campbell was arrested at Heathrow Airport's Terminal 5. She was reportedly taken into custody after attacking and spitting on a police officer. The uproar apparently began after Campbell discovered a piece of her luggage was missing while waiting for her British Airways flight to Los Angeles. Campbell was reportedly in the Heathrow Airport to catch a 4 p.m. flight to Los Angeles. While waiting in the first class lounge for her flight to leave, Campbell discovered that one of her carry-on bags was missing. She then reportedly demanded British Airways staff locate her bag before her flight departed. British Airways representatives offered to attempt to find the bag and send it on later if it could be located. However, this apparently was not an acceptable solution for the Campbell. According to witnesses at the scene, Campbell was "ranting and screaming" over the missing bag. When she failed to calm down, airport staff labeled her unfit to fly and requested that she leave the airport immediately. The situation only deteriorated from there.When Campbell refused to leave the airport, airport police were called to the scene to have her removed. One eyewitness said Campbell started screaming, "get off me, leave me alone" before attacking one of the officers. "She attacked a male police officer and spat at him," the witness said. Campbell was restrained and taken to the Heathrow Airport police station. The flight she had been scheduled on departed more than an hour late as airport staff removed Campbell's luggage and entourage from the plane. A British Airways representative confirmed a passenger was removed from a flight this morning, but would not offer any further details. A police spokesman stated that a "37 year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of assaulting a police officer and is currently in detention at Heathrow police station."
