Victim of McGregor's 'Flashing' in Corsica Revealed to be Married Woman on Holiday, Reports Say

by

The UFC champion, notorious for his brash behaviour, has found himself at the centre of controversy once again, after he was arrested in France for indecent exposure and sexual assault on Friday. He has since been released.

A young married woman on a vacation with her husband has been revealed to be the victim of UFC superstar Connor McGregor's act of exhibitionism, France 3 Corse reported, citing a friend of the alleged victim.

According to the TV broadcaster, the heavily-inebriated martial artist flashed his private parts at the woman as she was heading to the restroom at a bar in the town of Calvi, Corsica on 6 September.

The source added that the 32-year-old Irishman's stunt left the woman deeply shocked. However, the victim's friend did not reveal to the news outlet whether McGregor assaulted the victim.

The police apprehended the athlete on Friday on suspicion of sexual assault and indecent exposure.

He underwent a sobriety test and was released on Sunday without charge, but he could be subpoenaed later this week. McGregor's legal representative said to MMA Fighting that his client strongly denies the accusation of any wrongdoing.
