LAPD Investigating Rape Claims Against Ed Westwick

Ed Westwick has responded to a woman’s claim that he raped her three years ago.

The former Gossip Girl star posted this short, but concise, message to Twitter emphatically stating that he does not know this woman, he has never forced himself in any manner on any woman and he has certainly never committed rape.

Either way the LAPD is investigating the accusation.

Her name is Kristina Cohen and she filed a police report at the Hollywood precinct after she claims Westwick forcibly held her down and raped her at his Hollywood Hills home in February 2014.

Cohen says she went to the actor’s home for dinner with a producer friend, and when she woke up from a nap in Ed’s guest bedroom, he was on top of her and he held her down and raped her.

Westwick’s lawyer has not offered a statement.
