The lead singer and co-founder of Puddle of Mudd is being sued by a Los Angeles police officer who says she was injured after falling through a wooden landing at a Hollywood property the entertainer owned.

Nicole Montgomery alleges negligence by 43-year-old Wes Scantlin in his maintenance of the property.

A representative for Scantlin could not be immediately reached for comment.

Montgomery says she went to the Sunset Plaza Drive property on a call on Aug. 13, 2014. She walked up a flight of stairs to a wooden landing, but the surface gave way and she fell several feet to the ground, according to the Los Angeles Superior Court lawsuit filed Monday.

Montgomery suffered serious injuries, according to her court papers.
