P. Diddy Investigated for Assault & Battery

TMZ has learned Sean "P. Diddy" Combs is being investigated by the Los Angeles Police Department for allegedly attacking a man at a Hollywood Oscar party.

Gerard Rechnitzer was at a post-Oscar bash Sunday night with his fiancee at Teddy's at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood. At around 2 AM Monday morning, the 27-year-old Rechnitzer was on his way to the parking lot when he made a pit stop in the bathroom. When he walked out, he noticed his fiancee was surrounded by six men, including Combs. We're told the 5'7", 140 lb. Rechnitzer watched as Combs chatted up his girl for about five minutes, and then asked his fiancee to leave with him.

At that point, Combs allegedly told the woman he was having a party and invited her to come. Rechnitzer persisted and asked his fiancee again to leave with him. Combs then allegedly socked Rechnitzer in the jaw.

Rechnitzer, a real estate broker, called 911. The LAPD came out and took a report, but Combs had left before the cops arrived. An ambulance came but Rechnitzer declined treatment.

We're told the LAPD contacted Rechnitzer yesterday, and as many as five witnesses who observed the incident.

136. #38, your post was incorrect. A man behaves like a man when he is a man and that does not include inappropriate behaivior. I don't know what men you know, but most men don't behave like this. Don't make excuses for his behaivor and then try to put it on him "just being a man", it's insulting to men who know what it means to be a man. Talented or not, right is right and wrong is wrong. There is no in-between.

139. prettyx2 Do you really want to go there with white ppl smelling like wet dogs, when your stinky black ass will go the beuty parlor and not wash your nasty stankin head for weeks. You really need to think before you speak cause you are so stupid thinking money means anything. Money is NOT giong to get you in the gates of heaven bitch, and when you have money and you do what P Shitty has done with it it is wrong. You cant treat ppl like that. Also why r u crying about ppl saying things about race, you ALWAYS do it you ignorant dumbass.

142. Doesnt the Roosevelt have security cameras installed in the parking lot?
All he has to do is have his lawyer request a copy of the incident and
ching ching...major lawsuit.
This is why some guys dont like to take there women out to places like
this because someone could have gotten seriously injured.
I think he should dump his girlfriend for not walking away.
she probably wanted to leave him, and go with diddy.....the little tramp!!!

143. Dumb HO we are so blessed that we dont have to wash our hair everyday! Also you made a great point we can go 4 weeks without washing our hair and it will be fine...... You on the other hand cant go 2 days without catching lice or really smelling like a greasy head puppy dog.

We can be all that you mentioned above, you can talk about Diddy and anybody else you choose to. However he is a prime example of someone that came from nothing and made it to the top.... Now if Diddy looses his power today or tomorrow he will still be Diddy. But if one of your ppl were to loose their riches they would kill themselves.

I never claimed money could get you into heaven if that were to be true you ppl would be trying to have a war with GOD to take heaven over!

144. making it to the top eh? P Shitty there did not make it to the top. He was the behind man with biggie. Hello! He cashed in when his "best friend died" with his remembrance song. That's how it goes with you people. Fu*k anyone and every one to get ahead. Seeing how you spell I would imagine the ghetto schools are not treating you so well, guess that's why you people screw other people over. Furthermore the whole hair thing, you cannot afford the proper products to keep your hair healthy, that's why you don't wash it for ages, not by choice, by necessity. You think your so slick. Blah blah blah. PRETTY2X or whatever you are now boring me with your enormous black natural ass (he he he). Go play on the highway , I am guessing it is just outside your door, hood rat.

147. I just don't understand why whenever there is a subject about something, or anything about a rapper or a black subject people can't comment or complain without playing the race card. It always ends up not being about whatever we were talking about to begin with. And prettyx2 how dare you try and tell someone that "Money won't get them into Heaven" and in the same key stroke call her a B-I-T-C-H?, guess is you don't spend much time in Sunday School.

148. Perve Daddy is at it again huh? What is up with these guys thinking that money makes them the Sh*t? Between him and Kellly's child banging disgust, I dont know whats going on anymore. I think thye should focus on the business and not someone else's woman. Ol' boys girl should be dumped b/c its partly her fault for sticking around. But I'd sue him and pay an assasin to sneak in and stick a plunger in his a$$. Yeaaaa take that take that. LMAO

149. shitty diddy should stay in the background now, his star shining days are over, with all the money he has, he could be doing things like buying some manners,or going to obedience school like most rich dogs do. I think he's been on a downhill spiral since he's been with Kim,she seem like the type that hanging in there for the kids sake, he's this so call BIG PIMPER....shit , he need to step back and take a look at what he has at home, because it seem like he don't know what it is to be in a relationship with a real person that is there for all the right reasons, he makes babies with women and don't marry them and he acts like he's all that... well let me tell u something p shitty diddy, you should learn some sense with all that money u got and stop trying so hard to be something that you're not all the money in the world won't buy respect or dignity if u don't have any yourself... so stop that shit and get to doing things that needs to be done,like get your head out of those WHITE WOMEN;s asses and get with the sista u got. huh (just like the rest of the brothas out there...black women are good enough to fuck and get babies with but not good enough to MARRY what's with this shit? wake up black women stop getting with these losers because they have money especially if you're not getting it ALL..shit) these so called moguls like him don't respect black women because they think they are above them when they get a few dollars in the bank, stupid black women think that because she's with him she's all that ..WRONG ! u should do what the white women do with them make them respect u or don't be with them they're no better than u are they some black women are sooooo blinded by the bling they can't see the real deal not even when they're being DISPECTED.

150. WOW!!!! I'm surprised at all the 'haters' jus cuz he's a celebrity w/money doesn't mean he goes around messin wit people. Did anyone ever consider the girl was enjoying Diddy's conversation since the story does say it took her fiancee 2x to call her to come to him. Maybe the guy should consider getting a new girl
