Looks like Eminem isn't the only one getting made at Bruno this week. A woman is sueing Sacha Baron-Cohen, claiming that his shenanigans put her in a wheelchair. The incident occurred in May 2007, while Sacha was filming his new film, Bruno. The incident occurred at a bingo hall in Palmdale, CA, where the woman claims that Cohen offensively touched, pushed, and battered her. When she called out for help she claims that three of Cohen's crew members attacked her, trying to provoke an emotional response from her to film.
After the woman was able to get away from the men, she was found sobbing uncontrollably. She soon then passed out, hitting her head on the floor. She was been in a wheelchair ever since. Cohen has been under fire from lawsuits before. The previous ones had to deal with his previous movie, Borat, although none involved physical injury. Looks like Cohen isn't going to be able to joke his way out of this one.
