Hollywood Studio Exec. Questioned for Groping a Young Woman

Date:

Police have questioned Harvey Weinsten after the studio executive allegedly groped a 22-year-old- woman on Friday, according to Variety.

From Variety:

The woman accused the Weinstein Co. boss of touching her breasts and hips, police confirmed. The Daily News, which broke the story, reported that the incident took place at around 6 p.m. Friday at the Tribeca Film Center.

But another source told Variety that there were no official events held at the Tribeca Film Center on Friday night, and the Weinstein Co. shares office space with Tribeca Enterprises. Police could not immediately confirm if the alleged assault took place at Weinstein’s offices or in another part of the building.

No charges have been filed and Weinstein is expected to attend a New York premiere of his latest movie “Woman in Gold” tonight.
