Diddy Seen Assaulting Cassie In 2016 ... Brutal Surveillance Video
update
10:56 AM PT -- Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... there is no record cops can track down as it pertains to this 2016 incident at the InterContinental, so it doesn't appear to have been mentioned to cops in a police report, or otherwise reported to the authorities.
In terms of cops opening a case on this now, LAPD tells TMZ ... For cases before January 2020, it's a 3 year statute of limitations -- and after January 2020, it's 5 years. In other words, there's no chance cops will dive into this specific incident for potential criminal charges at this point, at least as far as the LAPD is concerned.
Diddy brutally beat up his ex-girlfriend Cassie at a hotel in L.A. 8 years ago -- something she detailed in her lawsuit ... and which we're now seeing for the first time on camera.
CNN just aired surveillance footage they obtained from the now-defunct InterContinental Hotel in Century City that depicts an incident from March 5, 2016 ... in which you can see Cassie roaming the hallways of the hotel in an attempt to get to the elevators.

However, you eventually see Diddy running in nothing but a towel around his waist going after her ... and when he catches up to her, he strikes her and eventually kicks her as well.
