Naomi Campbell Out Of Jail, On Bail

LONDON, April 4, 2008— -- Supermodel Naomi Campbell wasreleased on bail pending investigation into a disturbance on aplane at Heathrow's new Terminal 5, police sources said onFriday.

The 37-year-old was escorted off a U.S.-bound flight onThursday after police were called. She was arrested on suspicionof assaulting a police officer, and later released to return onbail in late May.

"She was released on bail shortly after midnight, and is dueto return on bail," Scotland Yard said in a statement.

Campbell was on a British Airways flight due to depart forLos Angeles when the disturbance occurred.

Her spokeswoman said that one of two bags she had checked inhad gone missing.

"BA decided to resolve this by insisting she leave theflight and then called the police to forcibly eject her from theflight," the spokeswoman said.

"She was taken to the Heathrow Police Station and releasedon police bail. So far as we are aware BA have still failed tooffer any explanation as to why her bag went missing at Terminal5."

BA has been beset by problems with the high-tech check-inand baggage handling systems at the new 4.3 billion pound ($8.6billion) terminal.

Hundreds of flights have been cancelled and tens ofthousands of bags have gone missing, costing the airline about16 million pounds since the terminal's opening last month.

It is not the first time Campbell has been in trouble withthe law.

She spent five days mopping floors as part of a communityservice sentence in New York last year after throwing a mobilephone at her housekeeper during an argument over a pair ofjeans.

She was also ordered to attend anger management classes.
