Michael Kelly, a 55-year-old dog walker with multiple sclerosis, claimed he was assaulted by EastEnders actor Scott Maslen after a confrontation about his dog not being cleaned up. Kelly reported suffering injuries, including a fractured eye socket, following an altercation where Maslen allegedly insulted him before the physical conflict. Despite the situation escalating to violence, Kelly's account points to a frustrating moment over pet responsibilities spiraling into something far more serious than simply an argument.
Maslen reportedly confronted Kelly about picking up his dog's waste more quickly. Kelly, insisting he would do so at his own pace, described the actor's language as 'a torrent of foul and abusive' before the situation led to an altercation that resulted in serious injuries for Kelly, including whiplash and stitches to his nose. Eyewitness accounts confirm the escalation of the conflict, with police now involved in the investigation of the assault.
Witnesses to the encounter reported a heated dispute stemming from social expectations regarding pet ownership leading to physical confrontation. Kelly pointed out that despite the actor's public persona, the reality of the incident was far grimmer, stating, 'You're not in EastEnders now. This is real life.' His account sheds light on how easily minor disputes can escalate to violence, particularly when emotions run high.
