Leroy “Tony” Austin has filed suit against Sean “Diddy” Combs following a November 2010 incident where he and a guest were shot outside of his Atlanta, Georgia franchise, Justin’s Restaurant and Bar.

According to the Associated Press, the former Def Jam A&R was invited to the restaurant as a guest but was left injured after arriving at the establishment. Filing suit in the U.S. District Court of Northern Georgia, Austin claims that Diddy failed to maintain a safe environment, citing that the restaurant’s operators knew of “dangerous and hazardous conditions” and that they failed to provide adequate security on the property.

The terms of the lawsuit are currently unknown. HipHopDX will keep you updated.
