Reports indicate that Britney Spears accidentally hit herself in the face as she was blocked by security while approaching a basketball star. Police in Las Vegas police say that Victor Wembanyama's guard, who the pop star alleged struck her during Wednesday's encounter, will not face charges. Spears, 41, said she was backhanded in the face by the man, calling the incident a traumatic experience. But, as noted, video posted online appears to confirm a police report posted by local media. A copy of the Las Vegas police report summarising their investigation, obtained by the BBC, says: Detectives and I were able to review surveillance footage of the event which showed Britney going to tap the Spurs player on the shoulder. When she touched the player [the security guard] pushes her hand off the player without looking which causes Britney's hand to hit herself in the face. The 19-year-old NBA top draft pick was in Las Vegas ahead of his first Summer League game when he visited a restaurant at the Aria, on South Las Vegas Boulevard, where Spears said she spotted him. I decided to approach him and congratulate him on his success. It was really loud, so I tapped him on the shoulder to get his attention, she said, alleging that a security guard protecting Wembanyama struck her in the face with the back of his hand, causing her glasses to fall off.
