New York City Mayor Eric Adams

Sean "Diddy" Combs in September 2023.

give it back after 2016 security footage of Combs
assaulting his ex, Cassie, surfaced, NBC News reports. .
The footage shows Combs chasing Cassie down
a hotel hallway, grabbing her near the elevator, throwing her to the ground and kicking her twice.
He then proceeded to drag her
on the ground by her sweatshirt.
In a letter addressed to Diddy, Adams asked for the Key to the City to be returned and said he "was deeply disturbed" by the footage, NBC News reports.
I strongly condemn these actions
and stand in solidarity with all
survivors of domestic and gender-based violence, NYC Mayor Eric Adams, via letter to Diddy.
Our city has worked tirelessly to
make sure survivors are heard and
seen by our administration, NYC Mayor Eric Adams, via letter to Diddy.
Diddy has since honored the mayor's
request and returned the key.
He also released a video apology, calling his "behavior" in the footage "inexcusable.".
Five lawsuits alleging "sexual assault, sexual trafficking"
and "other criminal activity" have been filed
against Diddy since November, NBC News reports.
