Soulouque, the man Rodman slapped, told TMZ Sports he was really hurt — and went to the hospital where he was diagnosed with a left corneal abrasion. He went to cops the day after the incident and filed a report.

Cops launched an investigation and called up a witness named David Lee Roth — who, shockingly, is NOT the Van Halen singer. Still, cops say DLR corroborated Soulouque’s story. “Roth stated he was about twenty feet away and he saw Rodman turn around and open hand smack Soulouque two times,” the report states.

Soulouque spoke publicly about the alleged incident back in May.

“I was like, ‘What is your problem?’” he told the Sun-Sentinel. “It was out of nowhere. He just hit me and I was blindsided and he started charging me.” Rodman’s lawyer, Lorne Berkeley promised at the time that the incident would “not be substantiated” after a “thorough investigation is completed.

That Dennis continues to be a lightning rod. 

You really never know what’s going to happen when Dennis enters a room. . .
