Farrah Abraham claimed she was allegedly manhandled and thrown to the ground “like a ragdoll” outside of Grandmaster Records in Los Angeles.
Abraham filed the suit in Los Angeles court on Monday, claiming “an overly aggressive male security guard” named George Velasquez used excessive force when she had already been escorted out of the hotspot. She’s suing Velasquez and the restaurant for assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, neglect hiring, training and supervision, general negligence, premises liability, neglect use of excessive force, and punitive damages.
What’s interesting is that she doesn’t mention the female security guard who sued her over the alleged slap.

She claimed she suffered “serious physical, mental, and emotional injuries” as a result of the alleged battery committed two years ago.
According to Abraham, while she was at the bar, “another patron of the establishment suddenly attacked Plaintiff, shoving her violently multiple times, and swinging her purse at her, inadvertently striking one of Plaintiff’s companions in the presence of several staff and/or security guards employed by the establishment.”
She said she was “physically grabbed from behind by the arms by one of the staff members/security guards, and was forcibly taken away from the bar and escorted out of the restaurant.”

Abraham claimed she was already outside of Grandmaster Records and waiting for her friends on the sidewalk when she was allegedly approached by more of the establishment’s employees and security guards “then physically roughed up by Defendant GEORGE VELASQUEZ, an overly aggressive male security guard who then wrestled with Plaintiff, flung her down to the ground like a ragdoll, handcuffed her, and then held her down on the ground, at times using his knee to do so, repeatedly saying “You are going to jail.”
This comes the same day Farrah was sued by a female security guard over the alleged incident.

To add insult to alleged injury, Abraham noted that “the horrific scene was fortunately captured by one of Plaintiff’s companions as the shocking cruelty unfolded. As a result of the Defendants’ heinous and appalling behavior, Plaintiff has suffered irreparable and permanent damages as more fully described herein.”
