Joan Collins sues owners of Hollywood apartment block

Actress Joan Collins has filed a lawsuit against the owners of a Los Angeles apartment block after her daughter broke her eye socket in a fall.

Katyana Kass fainted in her mother's luxury Hollywood apartment block Sierra Towers and struck her face after a swimming session in January (12).

Kass was checked into the city's Cedars-Sinai hospital, where she underwent surgery to have metal pins inserted in her face.

Collins has now launched legal action action, filing a lawsuit in L.A. Superior Court, according to Britain's Mail on Sunday newspaper.

She claimed Kass, 27, collapsed with suspected hypothermia and a security guard called in to help failed to care for her properly.

Collins is suing for reimbursement of medical and legal bills, as well as damages.
