Don Lemon has denied even knowing a bartender who is suing him for an incident where the CNN anchor allegedly grabbed his own genitals and tried to make the man smell his fingers, according to court papers obtained by DailyMail.com.
The 54-year-old was hit with a lawsuit from Hamptons bartender Dustin Hice, 39, last August, claiming Lemon assaulted him at Murf’s Backstreet Tavern in Sag Harbor in July of 2018.
Hice, who is seeking damages to be determined at trial, claimed in court papers that Lemon stuffed his hand down the front of his own shorts, vigorously rubbed his genitals, removed his hand and then shoved his fingers under Hice's nose.
The bartender claims the high-profile news anchor proceeded to ask him, 'do you like p***y or d**k?', while 'shoving his fingers into Hice's face with aggression and hostility'.
Lemon officially responded to the suit earlier this month, denying the allegations and saying Hice is a 'complete stranger' to him, according to papers filed to New York's Eastern District court.
Lemon's legal team sent a letter to Judge Steven Locke asking for Hice's claims of negligent infliction of emotional distress to be dismissed, explaining the two parties had come to an agreement. They later asked for the entire case to be thrown out.
