An unemployed actress who is suing Farrah Fawcett was attacked by a man who lured her to an apartment to receive information on her lawsuit, police said. Sonja Dunson--the first black ever to be a Miss America contestant in 1967--suffered cuts on both hands and under her chin from her broken bottle-wielding assailant in the attack Sunday morning. She escaped before sustaining further injury. Dunson’s attorney said that the actress’ suit, filed in March, 1986, alleges that she was blacklisted from work at Universal Studios because Fawcett wrongly believed she was having an affair with her husband at the time, Lee Majors.
