Video shows alleged slapping incident between Victor Wembanyama's security, Britney Spears

Surveillance video has been released of the incident during which Britney Spears alleges a member of Victor Wembanyama's security team backhanded her. It turns out she hit herself.

Surveillance video obtained by TMZ has been released that shows Britney Spears hit herself after the pop star's hand was pushed off San Antonio Spurs' Victor Wembanyama.

Spears claimed she was assaulted by security staff, but Las Vegas Police will not pursue criminal charges.

Spears initially accused a member of the No. 1 pick's security team of backhanding her in the face when she approached him for a picture Wednesday night.

Police said they concluded their investigation, and no charges will be filed.

According to an incident report obtained by Fox News Digital, a person within Spears’ camp told police she was "backhanded" by the security guard "in the face with a closed fist." The person also noted that, after they were seated for dinner, the security guard came over to apologize. 

But the incident report also noted that security footage showed the security guard pushing Spears’ "hand off of the player without looking which causes Britney's hand to hit herself in the face."

The update from law enforcement follows Spears’ statement that she was assaulted by the Spurs’ security personnel.

"I am aware of the player's statement where he mentions ‘I grabbed him from behind’ but I simply tapped him on the shoulder. His security then backhanded me in the face without looking back, in front of a crowd. Nearly knocking me down and causing my glasses off my face," Spears wrote in a statement published on her social media.

"I get swarmed by people all the time. In fact, that night. I was swarmed by a group of at least 20 fans. My security team didn't hit any of them."

Wembanyama told reporters earlier that he was unaware that Spears was the person involved in the incident and that he recalled being grabbed from behind before his security guard "pushed her away." 

"I didn’t see what happened because I was walking straight and didn’t stop. That person grabbed me from behind — not on my shoulder. She grabbed me from behind," he said. "I just know the security pushed her away. I don’t know with how much force, but security pushed her away. I didn’t stop to look, so I could walk in and enjoy a nice dinner."
