Another accuser has come forward with accusations against Kevin Spacey, claiming the actor grabbed his crotch at a bar in 2003.
A man named Tony Montana, who was in his 30s at the time of the alleged groping incident, when he says the “House of Cards” star grabbed his “whole package.”
The filmmaker and director told Radar Online he was editing a documentary at Coronet Pub in Los Angeles when Spacey walked in with a group of friends and eventually approached him at the bar.
“I went up to order a drink and Kevin came up to me and put his arm around me,” Montana said. “He was telling me to come with him, to leave the bar. He put his hand on my crotch forcefully and grabbed my whole package.” Spacey then told him, “this designates ownership.”
“I put my hand down and turned his thumb back to get his hand off it,” Montana said. “I paid for my drink and got away from him.”

Montana claims that Spacey didn’t let up then and followed him into the restroom later that same evening.
“I backed him out the door and I pushed him,” Montana recalled. “One of his friends was in line and I said, ‘It’s time to take your boy home.’ They all ended up leaving.”
Like many victims of sexual harassment, Montana kept quiet about the alleged encounter, but suffered in silence.
“I never talked to anyone about it except for therapists,” the “Overnight” producer admitted. “I had PTSD for six months after. It was an emasculating thing for someone to do to me. Whenever I went to the bar I would see if he was there or have my back against the wall.”
It wasn’t until Anthony Rapp came forward with his allegations against Spacey that Montana felt comfortable coming forward as well.

“This wasn’t something people were talking about openly,” he said. “It still feels awkward. I still feel what I felt then. I put it into the back of my mind until I saw him come forward.
