French actor gets hits in Moscow

- The Russian police started an investigation after a French actor became involved in a brawl in the Russian capital. Samy Naceri, known from the Taxi films, got into a fight with another visitor of a bar, news agency TASS.

On Sunday, the police received a phone call about a disturbance in the catering business at the Tverskaya ulitsa, an important road in Moscow. Agreed agents discovered that the actor had been beaten by an unknown man. It had already left when the police arrived, a source in the police told TASS.

Naceri probably was not seriously injured. Employees of a hospital confirmed that the actor was being treated and could leave the same day.

The Frenchman is not the first foreign star to have a bad experience in Moscow. A thief stole hundreds of thousands of euros in jewels and luxury items from the Colombian singer Maluma's hotel room in June. TASS reported at the time that the perpetrator could enter the room by pretending to be the guest of the artist.
