James Blake NYPD Launches Internal Investigation ... After Tennis Star Mistakenly Detained

Published | Updated

The NYPD has launched an internal investigation after former tennis superstar James Blake was wrongly detained and allegedly roughed up by 5 officers who mistook him for a credit card crook ... TMZ Sports has learned.

35-year-old Blake -- who's African-American -- says he was slammed to the ground and handcuffed by 5 cops outside an NYC hotel on Wednesday as he was on his way to the U.S. Open.

An NYPD spokesperson tells us Blake was "misidentified" as a suspect in an ongoing investigation into fraudulently purchased cell phones.

"Once Blake was properly identified and found to have no connection to the investigation, he was released from police custody immediately."

"In regards to the alleged improper use of force, the Police Commissioner directed the internal affairs bureau to investigate."

And get this ... one source connected to the situation tells us that while Blake was being detained, it was a retired NYPD officer who informed detectives that the guy in handcuffs was James Blake.

As for Blake, he told the NY Daily News he can't be sure race was a factor -- but he's more pissed about what he considers an unjustified use of force.

"To me it's as simple as unnecessary police force, no matter what my race is. In my mind there's probably a race factor involved, but no matter what there's no reason for anybody to do that to anybody."

TMZ Sports has obtained the Cameron Jordan police report -- in which one witness claims the New Orleans Saints player stated in the nightclub, "I can have any bitch that I want."

Jordan is under investigation for allegedly slapping a woman's ass at Republic nightclub in N.O. and then spraying her and her boyfriend with champagne in an aggressive manner.

According to the police report, the accuser's boyfriend told cops he confronted Jordan about his disrespectful actions toward his GF in the restroom -- and that's when Jordan said, "I can have any bitch that I want."

The BF says he told Jordan, "She was not a bitch. She's my girlfriend."

The man claims Jordan condescendingly asked, "How much do you weigh? 180?"

The BF told him he weighed 190 -- and that's when Jordan allegedly picked him up and "held him high in the air against his will while passersby took pictures."

Cops were notified and began investigating and the sex crimes unit was contacted to look into the alleged ass slap.

Cops say there is no surveillance footage of the incident -- but they did note that there were roughly 10 other Saints players in the club that night.

Lawrence Phillips Murder Case Victim May Have Been Sexually Assaulted (Update)

Published | Updated

11:42 AM PT -- The Kern County D.A.'s office tells us Phillips has NOT been charged with sexual assault and there is no pending sexual case against him.

Translation -- the sexual assault kit must have not shown any signs of a sexual assault.

Another shocking twist in the Lawrence Phillips murder case ... TMZ Sports has learned officials believe the victim may have been sexually assaulted around the time he was killed.

The former NFL running back has already been charged with 1st degree murder in the April 11th death of his cellmate at Kern Valley State Prison ... where Phillips was already serving time for a plethora of other crimes.

But an incident report obtained by TMZ Sports shows officials administered a sexual assault kit on the victim in the days following the murder.

We spoke with officials involved in the murder investigation who tell us a sexual assault kit is NOT a standard operating procedure with murder victims at KVSP -- "There would have to be a reason to believe [a sexual assault occurred]. Some evidence or something else."

It's unclear what the sexual assault kit turned up -- or if prosecutors plan to charge Phillips with a sex crime.

'Road House' Ronda Rousey Gets Blessing ... From Throat Rip Guy

Published | Updated

Great news for Ronda Rousey -- one the stars of the original "Road House" says he's PUMPED the UFC champ will star in the remake ... saying it's the perfect way to honor Patrick Swayze.

We spoke with Marshall Teague -- who played Jimmy (the kung fu bad guy) in the 1989 flick. Jimmy was the guy who had his THROAT RIPPED OUT by James Dalton (Swayze) during the lake fight.

Now, with Rousey tapped to star in the reboot -- Teague says Ronda is the PERFECT lead.

"Adding Ronda is a great idea. You don't want to try to rebuild Patrick Swayze. He was a unique talent and can't be duplicated."

Teague adds, "Ronda knows it's not going to be easy. Fans of the original might question her, but we all know she will do great."

As for Ronda, she issued a statement saying, "It is a great honor to play a part in celebrating the life of a man that inspired so many. I couldn't be more grateful to have this opportunity to pay respect to the beloved Patrick Swayze."

"I promise to work incessantly to make sure this project is a tribute his family and fans can be proud of."

Wladimir Klitschko My Bedroom Is Pretty & Pink ... Thanks to Hayden P.

Published | Updated

Just because Wladimir Klitschko moved in with his baby mama and fiancee Hayden Panettiere doesn't mean he gets control of the decor ... which is why the boxing champ sleeps in a pretty pink bedroom.

Check out the pics from Domino.com featuring the Nashville pad Hayden and Wlad share ... complete with a queen size master bed -- shocking considering he's 6'6" and 245 lbs (then again, she probably doesn't take up much space).

Wlad does have his own man cave -- a "music room" complete with a couch where the arms open up into insulated beer coolers.

Also, Wlad's room is located above the garage so he can play the drums as loud as he wants (did you know he played the drums?).

NBA's Pero Antic CHARGES DROPPED ... In NYC Cop Clash

Published | Updated

Good news for ex-Atlanta Hawks player Pero Antic -- TMZ Sports has learned officials are DROPPING the case against him for his role in that violent clash with NYPD officers back in April.

As we previously reported, Antic and his ATL teammate Thabo Sefolosha were both arrested outside 1 OAK nightclub on April 8th ... in the melee that ensued after another NBA player (Chris Copeland) was stabbed nearby.

Cops say both Pero and Thabo refused to leave the crime scene -- and the situation escalated with both NBA players ultimately getting arrested for disorderly conduct and obstructing authorities. At the time, cops said Pero had gotten physical with one of the arresting officers.

Cops investigated the incident ... and we're told officials are now convinced Pero was trying to DEFUSE the situation.

As one source puts is ... while Sefolosha was resisting arrest, Pero was trying to tell him to calm down and do what the officer said. When Pero grabbed the officer's shoulder, officials don't believe it was in an aggressive manner and the cop was not injured.

Bottom line -- Pero's off the hook.

As for Sefolosha ... a trial date has been set for October 5th. Thabo says he suffered serious damage to his leg at the hands of the arresting officers.
