London - Naomi Campbell has been accused of racially abusing a female police officer.
The supermodel - who was banned from flying with British Airways last week after abusing cabin crew and spitting in a policeman's face - allegedly made racist remarks as she was removed from the Los Angeles-bound flight in handcuffs.
Police sources claim she called a WPC a "white slag" before screaming, "fucking white honkeys" at the officer and her colleagues.
Naomi - who reportedly branded police officers "assholes" and air crew "bloody fools" because a piece of her luggage had gone astray at London's Heathrow Airport - claims she was only arrested because she is black.
She reportedly told a friend: "It just goes to show I have to fight for who I am. It's because I'm black."
However, the star made no complaint of racist treatment during her seven-hour stay at the airport's police station.
A police source added: "It's a bit rich coming from her. The WPC involved said she was called a white this and a white that. She has been away from work since the incident."
Naomi's spokesperson said: "This doesn't sound like anything she would say." - Bang Showbiz.com
