British designer John Galliano was detained by police in Paris on Thursday for alleged assault and making anti-Semitic comments.

According to Agence France-Presse, "The detention in Paris' fashionable Marais district came after Dior's chief designer allegedly verbally accosted a couple seated on a cafe terrace. Galliano's lawyer strongly denied accusations of anti-Semitism."

Police found that Galliano, the head designer at Christian Dior, had been drinking alcohol. He was released pending the filing of charges.

Recently, it was announced that the gay designer would design the wedding dress for Kate Moss.
