Former member of Fleetwood Mac, Lindsey Buckingham, was attacked recently in Santa Monica, authorities said.
While there are no specific details about the incident, sources tell ABC News that Buckingham was arriving at an appointment when a woman tossed some sort of substance at him. She then fled the scene.
Detectives reportedly know the identity of the woman and say she has been involved in other incidents within the Los Angeles Police Department territory. And because of that history, LAPD has taken the lead in the investigation, linking the Santa Monica assault with other incidents involving the same suspect.
LAPD’s Threat Management Unit, which handles stalking and threat-related cases, is specifically involved in the investigation. There has been no word on whether the woman has been arrested.
LAPD is not commenting further, saying it wants to protect the integrity of the investigation.
Santa Monica police are also not giving specific details.
Buckingham’s representatives were contacted for comment, but no response had been received as of the latest update.
