“Fast and Furious” star Vin Diesel faces allegations of sexual battery from his former assistant Asta Jonasson, who filed a lawsuit claiming he assaulted her in 2010, Associated Press reports.
Jonasson alleges Diesel forced himself onto her in an Atlanta hotel suite, leading to a series of alleged sexual assaults. The lawsuit claims Jonasson was later fired by Diesel’s sister, Samantha Vincent, who is also the president of his One Race Productions.
Jonasson is suing Diesel and his production company for various claims, including creating a hostile work environment, negligent supervision, and wrongful termination. Diesel’s attorney denies the claim, calling it outlandish and stating that there is evidence refuting the allegations.
