Hulk Hogan files sex tape complaint

Los Angeles - Hulk Hogan has filed a police report over the publication of his sex tape.

The TNA IMPACT star is furious the footage of himself and Heather Clem - the estranged wife of his close friend Bubba the Love Sponge - surfaced online last week so is hoping law enforcement officers can help him track down who leaked the film.

According to gossip website TMZ, the wrestler's attorney David R Houston filed a criminal police report in Clearwater, Florida, on Thursday morning, claiming whoever made the tape committed a felony by unlawfully recording Hulk without his consent and whoever leaked it broke the law by unlawfully running that footage.

'Going full blown'

The action comes after Hulk - whose real name is Terry Bollea - sent a cease-and-desist letter to Gawker, demanding the website remove the minute-long clip it posted.

So far, the footage is still available to view on the site.

The wrestler has admitted he is "devastated" by the video - which was shot six years ago - being leaked.

He said: "It was a bad choice and a very low point. I was with some friends and made a wrong choice. It has devastated me, I have never been this hurt.

"I'm going full blown to try and figure out who would do this to me.

"It's appalling. It's flipped my life totally upside down."
