The attack on Anna Burgese took place Jan. 19 at the plush, five-star W Hotel — and now Burgese is suing the hotel for millions.
According to a report in the Miami Herald, Burgese was minding her own business when as many as 10 prostitutes ganged up on her in the W Hotel lobby.
The petite mom, who is 5-foot-1 and 105 lbs., was tackled to the ground and suffered a scrape on her knee and a bloody lip, according to the police report obtained by The Miami Herald.
Instead of helping her to catch the hookers, Burgese claims that the “prostitute-friendly” hotel hailed cabs for the women to aid in their escape.
