Kim Delaney, known for her role in ‘NYPD Blue’, is currently embroiled in a legal battle following an incident that occurred nearly two years ago. The actress is being sued by Dzhamal Badalov, who claims that Delaney collided with his motorcycle at a red light in November 2022 and subsequently attempted to flee the scene. The lawsuit alleges that Delaney was driving erratically on Venice Boulevard in Los Angeles, swerving in and out of lanes before the collision occurred. Badalov asserts that witnesses observed Delaney’s erratic behavior prior to the accident, which resulted in him being thrown from his motorcycle.
