The saga surrounding Puka Nacua took a fresh twist after video emerged of his accuser dancing near the unconscious Los Angeles Rams star.
The wide receiver has been accused of biting a woman, who applied for a temporary restraining order which detailed her account of a group outing on New Year’s Eve in the Century City area of Los Angeles.
Nacua has denied the allegations, which included claims that he also used anti-Semitic slurs during dinner, and has threatened to retaliate with a defamation lawsuit.
Now, fresh footage has emerged from the night of the alleged incident, showing Nacua’s accuser ‘twerking’ near him.
In a video obtained by TMZ, a woman dressed in a white ensemble – alleged to be the accuser – was seen provocatively dancing in the back of a Sprinter van.
The football player was captured passed out on the seat in the background, while Sexyy Red’s ‘Bow Bow Bow (F My Baby Dad)’ played.

The racy dancing allegedly occurred after Nacua allegedly bit her in the back, according to TMZ.
The woman has also accused Nacua of saying ‘f*** all the Jews’ during dinner earlier in the evening.
She called this phrase the ‘first act in what became an escalating course of rude or vulgar, threatening, violent, and harassing conduct’ by the Rams star, who is also accused of biting and being ‘touchy-feely.’
The woman claimed that she and her friend – as well as Nacua and others – got in a Sprinter van when he became ‘touchy-feely’ with her.
Then, she alleged, Nacua ‘dropped his head into [her] girlfriend’s lap and crotch area and bit her thumb so forcefully that she screamed in acute pain’ before the wide receiver then turned to the alleged victim and bit her left shoulder.
The bite allegedly broke the woman’s skin and left a circular imprint of his teeth. A photo of this was included in the application for a temporary restraining order. A day after the incident, the alleged victim contacted police and filed an incident report.
Nacua has denied the allegations ‘in the strongest possible terms,’ and his attorney, Levi McCathern, has released a blistering statement in response to the allegations. He accused the woman of trying to ‘blackmail’ the NFL player and revealed their plans to escalate the legal war.
‘Let’s be clear about what this case is – and what it is not. This matter is not sexual in nature, nor does it involve any allegation of domestic violence. If it did, the filings would look very different. They do not,’ he told the Daily Mail.

‘It also doesn’t involve any elements of antisemitism. A completely sober witness has stated unequivocally that Puka never made the comments [redacted] claims.
‘Recent media reports have included inflammatory and unverified claims… that are flatly inconsistent with the facts. In fact, she continued to spend time with our client after the alleged incident – conduct that directly contradicts the narrative now being advanced – as evidenced by the videos seen online of her twerking and partying at a club.
‘In the months that followed, our office was contacted with demands for millions of dollars in exchange for not publicizing these allegations. That is not a legitimate legal claim – it is blackmail.
‘The timing of the claimant’s recent legal action – nearly three months after the alleged incident and just says [sic] after JSN’s [Jaxon Smith-Njigba] record-breaking contract as a wide receiver – further underscores the complete lack of credibility behind these accusations.
‘Puka denies these allegations in the strongest possible terms. We will be filing a defamation lawsuit and pursuing all available legal remedies in response to these false and damaging statements.’
