Cuba Gooding Jr. has announced that he plans to turn himself over to the NYPD Special Victims Division today (Thursday, June 13, 2019) in relation to claims that he groped a woman.
The alleged incident occurred on Saturday night at a Manhattan nightclub. An unidentified woman called police to report that Gooding, who was "highly intoxicated" at the time, grabbed her breast at about 9 p.m. at the Magic Hour Rooftop Bar and Lounge.
According to the New York Post, the woman immediately objected, which led to an argument with Gooding, which was then broken up by security. Security video shows that Gooding left the club soon after.
In a video posted on TMZ, Gooding, who was at LAX boarding a plane for New York, denied that he'd groped anyone and when asked if he was guilty, he replied, "No. Absolutely not," adding, "I trust the system." ~Alexandra Heilbron
