It's a bittersweet situation for rapper DMX who was allegedly robbed of his valuable watch from inside his hotel room by a female suspect. Though the woman was later found by police and the stolen watch recovered, the woman has now accused DMX of sexual assault.
Rapper DMX, real name Earl Simmons, is at the center of a developing sexual assault charge after reportedly inviting an unidentified woman and some other friends to his hotel room in Orange, California according to The Boombox. Simmons reportedly met the woman at a Los Angeles bar and ultimately ended up leaving with the woman to return to his hotel at Ayres Hotel and Suites on Bristol Street.
After some time spent in the room with Simmons and friends, the woman reportedly disappeared -- but not alone. A $30,000 watch that belonged to the "Party Up" rapper also went missing at the time when the woman was no where to be found.
As reported by Boombox, the Costa Mesa police were called and a search was conducted for the missing woman. Though the police were successful in their search and found the missing woman and watch, the investigation took a different turn when the woman gave her account of what happened.
The woman who was found with Simmons' watch was later identified as a 25-year-old Hawthorne, California resident by the LA Times. She told police that Simmons had sexually assaulted her before they arrived. According to the report, police are still investigating her claims and have not arrested the 45-year-old rapper over the allegations, although the woman was arrested on grand theft charges. She has since posted bail.
