HELL'S KITCHEN — A personal security guard of the rapper Fabolous assaulted a woman after she approached the artist in front of a Hell's Kitchen event space over the summer — but the woman took two months to report the incident, police said.
The 24-year-old woman, who reported the incident on Oct. 2, told police that she walked up to the rapper at SIR Stage37 about 11:20 p.m. on Aug. 19 an the guard grabbed her left wrist, twisted her arm and pushed her away. She refused medical help, police said.
