A woman filed a police report in Los Angeles Thursday claiming Johnny Depp's bodyguards wrestled her to the ground when she inadvertently got too near the actor's table at an Iggy Pop concert. According to TMZ.com, Robyn Ecker, 52, told police she had treated her husband and herself to $600 VIP-section tickets for his birthday, and was dancing to the punk-rock godfather's music when the takedown occurred. Ecker said she had herself examined at a hospital afterward. Her assistant told TMZ -- which referred to Ecker as disabled, but did not specify in what manner -- that Ecker had been drinking.
