Celebrity

The singer fights back accident lawsuit, insisting it's not him but the girl's mother who should be ordered to pay the damages.

July 6, 2010

AceShowbiz - Enrique Iglesias' attorneys have filed legal papers in a bid to clear the singer over a 2007 car accident which left an 11-year-old girl injured. The "Hero" hitmaker has been targeted in a damages lawsuit which accuses his manager of running over the foot of a young autograph hunter as the pair drove away from a California radio station in 2007.

The suit was filed by the child's mother last May and seeks $25,000 in damages. But Iglesias' legal team has fought back by filing papers claiming the blame lies with the child's mother, who should have done more to protect her daughter.
