Naomi Campbell, a British fasion model, was arrested for allegedly spitting at a police officer. The supermodel has a history of getting into physical altercations with assistants and employees, and has attended an anger management program. The British model, 37, was held after being taken off a plane on Thursday afternoon. Passengers claimed she had been aggressive to flight staff. In 2000, Campbell pleaded guilty in Toronto to an assault charge for beating an assistant while making a movie in Canada in 1998. Under an agreement with prosecutors, Campbell expressed remorse and was released without punishment or a criminal record. In January 2007, Campbell pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault for throwing her mobile cell phone at her maid in a dispute over a missing pair of jeans. Source: NewsOXY.com Naomi Campbell Arrested
