JOHN RALEY, LABELLE ACCUSER'S ATTORNEY: He was completely taken by surprise. No one would have seen this coming. Even watching the videotape now for the -- how many times we've watched it, it still is surprising -- the violence and the suddenness and the brutality of this attack.</s>HOLMES: All right. And the attack we're talking about, one side calls it an attack, the other not so much. But this is involving security guards for Patti LaBelle. That's a West Point cadet Richard King was on the ground there in the yellow shirt kind of stumbling around there. He told our Houston affiliate KTRK that Patti LaBelle's body guards beat him up at the airport. This surveillance video shows part of the incident. He is suing the performer now. We got this edited video from our affiliate KTRK. Now, he says that he did nothing wrong and the attack was completely unprovoked. But Houston Police reports say that King was intoxicated and harassing LaBelle's group as they were getting in the limo.</s>RICHARD KING, WEST POINT CADET (voice-over): I pretty much got jumped and I really don't even know why, and it's -- and on top of that it's causing a lot of trouble up here because of the false police report that they had reported, so -</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Were you drunk?</s>KING: No, ma'am.</s>HOLMES: Now, West Point told KTRK that the cadet is now leaving the Academy and there's also questions over how Houston Police handled the confrontation since no charges were filed. LaBelle took photos at -- with at least one officer on the scene. Also need to note here that we did reach out to Patti LaBelle's people a number of times, they have not commented on this incident. Now, we're getting close to the bottom of the hour here on this CNN SUNDAY MORNING. An international hunt is under way to find the source of this spreading and deadly E. coli outbreak. We are live in Europe next.
