Adrien Broner sued for sexual assault in connection to 2018 nightclub incident

WCPO (via Associated Press) reports that multiple world champion boxer Adrien Broner, 29, is now the subject of a civil lawsuit from a woman who says he sexually assaulted her at a Cleveland nightclub in June 2018.

The plaintiff, 35, claims that Broner pinned her on a couch and kissed her against her will. The woman claims she tried to push Broner away from her, but he only relented after a camera flashed in their direction.

The plaintiff went to police after the incident, which lead to Broner being indicted on sexual imposition, assault, and unlawful restraint charges.
