A woman who has allegedly been stalking former Fleetwood Mac member Lindsey Buckingham is believed to have thrown an unknown substance on the singer-guitarist before running off, sources told ABC News.

The incident unfolded on Wednesday as Buckingham arrived at an appointment in Santa Monica, California, sources told ABC News.

While Santa Monica police are not commenting, sources said the woman is known to law enforcement from previous incidents.

The Los Angeles Police Department’s Threat Management Unit is taking the lead on the case. The LAPD said in a statement, “To protect the integrity of the open and ongoing investigation, no further comment will be provided, at this time.”

Buckingham joined Fleetwood Mac with his then-girlfriend Stevie Nicks in 1975, and the couple became part of Fleetwood’s best-known lineup, along with drummer Mick Fleetwood, bassist John McVie and singer-keyboardist Christine McVie. Buckingham was a member of the group from 1975 to 1987 and from 1996 to 2018.
