BERLIN: Disgraced former Tour de France winner Jan Ullrich has been fined for attacking an escort in a Frankfurt hotel room, it emerged Wednesday.
Ullrich, 45, had been placed under investigation for having attacked and injured a 31-year-old escort in his hotel room on August 10, 2018. When the woman attempted to flee, he grabbed her throat and pushed her against the wall before strangling her and punching her arm, the prosecutor’s statement said.
The initial investigation into attempted homicide was dropped because the strangling was not strong enough to put the victim’s life in danger, the prosecutor said.The case marks a new low for the disgraced former cycling star.
