Black Eyed Peas Manager Arrested Over Perez Hilton ‘Assault'

The Black Eyed Peas' tour manager has been charged with assault.

Polo Molina, 36, is alleged to have attacked celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, 31, outside the Cobra nightclub in Toronto in the early hours of Monday.

Molina is said to have turned himself into authorities.

It is believed that Hilton and Black Eyed Peas member Will.i.am clashed at a party after the MuchMusic Video Awards in Canada on Sunday night over comments the blogger posted on his popular website.

Hilton blogged about the alleged incident soon after it took place.

"I was assaulted by Will.I.Am of the Black Eyed Peas and his security guards. I am bleeding. Please, I need to file a police report. No joke...

Still waiting for the police. The bleeding has stopped. I need to document this. Please, can the police come to the SoHo Met Hotel.

"I spoke to my lawyer. I really need to talk to the authorities... The Toronto police are here now... The police are investigating the assault now. I did the right thing by reporting it... I won't be talking about this any further. It is in the hands of the authorities."

Will.I.Am hit back at the claims maintaining his innocence in the matter.
Polo is due at a Toronto court on August 5.
