According to the New York Post, Dash was in town hosting Roc-A-Fella/Roc-A-Wear parties during Paris’ Fashion Week. Dash said that he was late for a radio interview in the rough Les Halles neighborhood. Dash was with two models and was being followed by a camera crew, who were taping Dash for a documentary he is filming on his European exploits.
"I was late, and the driver told me I might wanna walk," Dash said. "They came and tried to take my camera and I dropped the guy," Dash said. "I got pepper-sprayed and jumped by about five or six guys. The whole block jumped on me. We had to literally fight our way out of there."
Anderson and the other model yelled at the thugs to back off. "They were telling me to run, yelling at them to get up off me," Dash says. "But it wasn’t that bad. It could have been a lot worse. We just kinda squared off."
Dash and his team went to a nearby hospital, where doctors sewed up the head gash and treated everyone for exposure to pepper spray. Dash needed six stitches after he was struck with a blackjack and sprayed with pepper spray.
