![Whitney Houston -- Prescription Drugs Found ... Possible Drowning [Exclusive Photo Update]](http://ll-media.tmz.com/2012/02/12/0211-hero-whitney2-248x127.jpg)
TMZ has learned Cristian de la Fuente is being sued by a man who claims the injured hoofer ran him over after throwing a hissy fit at a Beverly Hills Porsche dealership.
According to the suit, which will be filed later this morning in L.A. County Superior Court, de la Fuente was at the car place on June 29, 2007, where he parked his car in the service department, blocking other customers.
The lawsuit claims he was asked to move the car, then "in a huff, jumped in his Audi and without looking, hastily put his vehicle into reverse and accelerated into the Plaintiff."
Kazuo Kimura claims he was "knocked to the ground and sustained serious injuries for which surgical intervention has been recommended."
The suit claims de la Fuente "showed no remorse" and "blamed the plaintiff for standing behind his vehicle and then refused to provide his license and insurance information."
The cops came and no citations were issued.
Calls to de la Fuente's rep were not immediately returned.

It is spelled "Porsche". Clearly someone is never gonna get one on a tmz paycheck....arggg
Interesting, almost a whole year later, and now that De La Fuente is "famous" this guy decides to sue. What?? He felt no pain before DeLaFuente was in DWTS, but now, all of the sudden, he feels pain? Give me a break. He must be related to the babysitters involved in the Lowe case.
Surgical intervention was "recommended" and cops issued no citations. This story is bogus.
Harvey, don't you like Cristian ? This sounds like BS. The LAPD did not do anything. How do you PROVE intent ? Hellloooo....
Who IS this Cristian de la Fuente guy? Maybe you could explain a little more before you just toss a name out there, as if he's a household name. I've never even heard of the guy and therefore I dont see why I should even care. I really hate it when you write about someone who is not a common name, yet you act like the whole world knows who they are.
Poor CLF..... She's a raving bitchy QUEEN !! Sorry, but he GAYDAR GOES OFF FOR HIM>
poor thing... all of that and a bitch too.
Never heard of her before dancing anyway.... definitely Z list.
Not sure how is it he is on DWTS, I dont consider him famous, but then again, they had Heather there too, so, not sure what their criteria is. He is from Chile, and at some point, he had a show in Mexico, but again, this doesnt mean he is famous, at least not here. He could be consider a star in Mexico, or Chile, but not here. Anyways, it seems to me that guy that's suing him is just after some $$$. If the cops showed up, and no citations were issued, then, I dont see a case. Trust me, if something major had happened, Mr. Kimura would have told the cops right there and then, instead of waiting 10 months to complain about pain.
Why are you guys reporting on unknown old men? If I wanted that I would go to Harvey's blog.
Watching on the sideline ~ I believe your so called GAYDAR is malfunctioning and you might want to put it in the shop for repair!!!
There are so many asians in California and Mr. Kimura decided he had a live one once he saw Cristian on DWTS!!! This story is BS and I hope it is thrown out immediately!
How retarded! The story is bogus. TMZ you're sleepin on the job, what about Mariah and Nick elopping?! Another TMZ follower taken over by perez. Sorry, I tried to stick it out with you as long as I could. We've been through alot, from Brit Brit's random snatch shots to all kinds of yummies. I mean maybe it's not you, it's me. I'll tell my people to call your people and we will see what coems from there. But I must say goodbye.
Seriously ENOUGH w/ these people. not everyone watches this damn show. So sick of reality TV, every other post on this damn site is about this crap or American Idol.
enough!!!!
Without discounting anything that has been said, cops usually do not issue citations when an accident happens on private property. Everytime a cop writes a ticket, he also needs to appear for the court hearing. So unless the officer is a traffic cop, they are not anxious to create an undue court apperrance for themselves. It's also not unusual for lawsuits in California to be filed 1 or even 2 years after an accident - attorneys and courts are busy folks.
The Statute of Limitations in the State of California for bodily injury is one year. Citations are not issued on private property. It can take several months to determine whether or not an injury will need future attention. It is possible that the insurance company is dragging its feet in settling the claim.
Cristian is a very decent and talented actor. He is very appreciated by latin people. I think Mr. Kimura is trying to get money, now that Cristian is becoming famous. What a shame!!!
