British police are investigating a claim of sexual assault against Oscar-winning actor Kevin Spacey, Sky News television reported Friday.

Scotland Yard said it was looking into a complaint made over an incident in south London in 2008, but the force does not identify any person subject to an investigation unless they have been charged

The incident occurred near The Old Vic theatre, where Spacey was artistic director from 2004 to 2015, according to Sky News.

Elsewhere, a man said on Friday that Spacey attempted to rape him when he was 15. - AFP
