Insider Shares How James Kennedy Was Acting "Erratic" and "Aggressive" at Kathy Hilton’s Party Before His DV Arrest as He Reportedly "Caused a Scene"

While attending Kathy’s event with his girlfriend, Ally Lewber, 28, who has not yet been identified as his alleged victim, the Vanderpump Rules alum, 32, was said to have kicked off his night “in great spirits” before turning “aggressive,” which may have been the result of potential intoxication.

“[He] and Ally were cuddling together and taking photos,” an eyewitness told Us Weekly on December 12. “He seemed like he was in a good headspace and was dancing, singing and having fun.”

But a second source said James was later seen “running” through the party and “causing a scene” as they described the former reality star’s behavior as “erratic.”

“His guy friend was chasing him from Kathy’s basement all the way throughout Kathy’s backyard, and James looked mad while running away,” the insider alleged. “The guy who was chasing him almost fell into the pool and dropped a lantern in the pool causing a huge scene. Everyone was wondering what was going on.”

The source went on to say that James was “in a mood” on the red carpet before the party began and “ran off to get inside the party,” avoiding interviewers.

Meanwhile, a third insider told PEOPLE that James, who is pictured above at the party, was “acting super aggressive all night long.”

“He was acting so erratic, running back and forth to the bar and body-checking people along the way,” the source stated. “He appeared inebriated. Spent the evening mostly alone but when he did speak to people, he appeared irritated and rude.”

Following James’ arrest on Tuesday, he was released on $20,000 bail, and charges against him are pending.

Vanderpump Rules will return to Bravo with an all-new cast for season 12 next year.
