Natasha Wilson Was Left With Permanent Disfigurement After Vicious Dog Attack In Hollywood Park
The actress says she suffered facial injuries and lasting scarring after defending her French Bulldog, and she seeks medical costs and lost earnings.
- Lifetime actress Natasha Wilson filed a lawsuit against Gregory Marcel, alleging she suffered permanent facial disfigurement during a dog attack on November 7, 2024, at West Hollywood Dog Park while protecting her French Bulldog from Marcel's dog, Scruffy.
- The complaint alleges that Scruffy approached Wilson's pet and 'stood over it in an aggressive and dominant posture.' Fearing for her dog's safety, Wilson picked up the smaller animal, but Scruffy allegedly jumped on her, causing her to lose control.
- Wilson sustained a facial laceration above her right eyebrow requiring sutures, leaving her with permanent scarring and impaired eyebrow movement. Doctors advised her to undergo scar revision surgery to mitigate damage from the attack, according to the lawsuit.
- Seeking economic damages, Wilson alleges the incident brought her acting career to a standstill, making it 'impossible' for her to book new roles. She is pursuing compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and diminished earning capacity.
- California Civil Code Section 3342 generally holds owners liable for public dog bites regardless of prior aggressive behavior. The case echoes a recent precedent where a jury initially awarded Maria Avila $12.9 million against Chris Brown for a similar dog attack.
