CNN has obtained surveillance footage from March 5, 2016, showing Sean 'Diddy' Combs physically assaulting his then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura in a hotel hallway. The video, which depicts Diddy grabbing, shoving, dragging, kicking Ventura, and throwing objects at her, corroborates allegations made by Ventura in a federal lawsuit filed in November 2023, which has since been settled. The incident occurred at the InterContinental Hotel in Century City, Los Angeles. The footage has sparked renewed scrutiny of Diddy's past behavior, with some noting that Kimora Lee Simmons had previously warned about his conduct.
