A female acquaintance of comedian Bill Cosby has made an allegation against him that has prompted a police investigation in Pennsylvania, the entertainer's attorney said Thursday.

Attorney Walter Phillips said he spoke Thursday with authorities in Pennsylvania who told him they have begun an investigation. He would not discuss the specifics of the allegation — which he called "utterly preposterous" — but said it amounts to, at the most, "inappropriate touching."

No charges have been brought against Cosby. Phillips said the accuser, who lives in Canada, knows Cosby and the alleged incident in question happened about a year ago.

Cosby postponed a town hall meeting in Cleveland on Thursday and has postponed three upcoming shows in Florida, his publicist David Brokaw said. Brokaw would not say whether the postponements have anything to do with the recent allegation.

1. Hmmmm, preposterous yet "inappropriate touching"

Am I wrong or is the lawyer denying on the one hand yet inferring that "inappropriate touching" may have occured?

3. what I heard on the local radio this morning Detroit 95.5

a segment called "Sara's Dirt" Bill Cosby has been accused of drugging an acquaintance. She awoke to him groping her breasts and fondling himself simultaneously.
