Assistant says Johnny Rotten punched her

NEW YORK, June 5 (UPI) -- A female assistant to Johnny Rotten said the former Sex Pistols frontman punched her at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Southern California.

The New York Post said Roxane Davis is suing Rotten, whose real name is John Lydon, because he punched her on Jan. 23, 2007.

Davis claimed in the suit that Lydon was furious his posh hotel room didn't have a connecting door to the room of his personal assistant Jon "Rambo" Stevens.

The Post said it wasn't able to reach the rocker for a comment.
