Alec Baldwin is suing the man he got into a dispute with over a parking spot, claiming that the man lied to police about the encounter and made defamatory statements about the actor.
In a lawsuit filed Friday, attorneys for Baldwin said that Wojciech Cieszkowski falsely told police that Baldwin had punched him in the face during a 2018 argument over a parking space in New York, which ultimately led to the actor's arrest. "When two New Yorkers get into an argument over a parking space, typically what happens is they exchange a few sharp words and then move on with their lives. But that is not what happened here," the lawsuit reads.
"Cieszkowski wants a fortune to remedy his supposed injuries from that 'assault,'" the lawsuit reads."Yet the doctors who saw him immediately after the incident thought he needed, at most, one dose of Tylenol."Alec Baldwin falls for classic New York City scamBaldwin alleges in the lawsuit that he had suffered damages as a result of false and defamatory statements that Cieszkowski made to law enforcement, the news media and the general public.
