assisted living facility Wendy Williams had been holed up in has accused the TV star’s niece of “kidnapping” her.In a police report filed this week, Coterie — the Lenox Hill facility where Williams has been staying — has accused her niece, Alex Finnie, of breaching the law by taking her out to dinner Wednesday night, TMZ reports.Finnie, who visited her aunt at the $18,000-per-month facility this week, whisked her away to an Italian restaurant inNoHo.But moments later, the facility contacted the NYPD to file a police report in which they claimed Finnie “evaded staff by taking Wendy out of the building,” the outlet reports.However, Williams — who had been undergoing a psychiatric evaluation at the facility — was not allowed to leave the memory unit without elevator access from the fifth floor, the outlet adds.Staffers at the facility also claimed that Williams and her family member were escorted to the lobby by a worker, who even “opened the door” of the Uber for them.However, the information in the police report contradicts a claim previously made by the attorney of Williams’ guardian, Sabrina Morrisey, who told TMZ that the former talk show host has no restrictions at the facility.Following her dinner with Williams, Finnie — who is the daughter of Williams’ sister, Wanda — said the pair “came back from dinner and apparently police were called.”“I was told that, at some point, the police were called because the Coterie here was saying allegedly that I took my aunt from this facility and whisked her away without any sort of confirmation or approval,” she added.Williams, for her part, described the ordeal as “unbelievable.”“Clearly they are lying to me saying I can go out and do what I want to do.
