Remember last February when that guy, Gerard Rechnitzer, accused Diddy of socking him in the jaw after threatning to "smack flames out his a**" over some chick? Well, he's filed a lawsuit and his has 2 witnesses to back him up...
Court documents filed last week detail statements given by witnesses to the fight. "I just kind of remember seeing [Rechnitzer] go flying, not flying as in like feet off the ground, but he went back significantly," Marianna Ruiz said in her deposition. "I was just in shock that somebody would ... just kind of strike somebody out of nowhere." Witness Michael Sherman said, "All of a sudden, [Diddy] hit him. And there was a taxi behind Gerard. Gerard got knocked into the taxi." Rechnitzer, 27, is seeking unspecified damages in the suit. Prosecutors declined to press charges. Combs' attorney wrote in court papers filed Wednesday that Combs "is no way legally responsible for what happened to Rechnitzer" and called the suit "completely baseless."
