Actor Russell Brand accused of sexual assault in New York suit

The suit follows a recent flurry of allegations reported in the British news media against the 48-year-old performer by several women accusing him of sexual assault and inappropriate behaviour, some dating back 20 years.

British police said they were investigating a number of the allegations, but the New York lawsuit filed on Friday marks the first such accusation levelled in court.

It was brought in state court under New York's Adult Survivors Act, which gives accusers a one-year window to sue over alleged sexual abuse from a long time ago, even if statutes of limitations have expired.
