Sean “Diddy” Combs once threw a knife that came “pretty close” to hitting his one-time girlfriend Cassie Ventura, a witness just told jurors.
Bryana “Bana” Bongolan — a friend of Ventura’s — recounted a time she saw the Bad Boy Records founder get violent toward his longtime on-and-off girlfriend.
The friends were both sleeping at Ventura’s apartment when Bongolan woke up to “banging” and discovered an “upset” Combs inside the apartment.
The “I’ll Be Missing You” rapper took out a knife and pointed it toward Ventura, then he “threw the knife in Cassie’s direction,” Bongolan testified.
She said the knife came “pretty close” to where Ventura was standing but didn’t strike her.

Ventura “threw the knife back,” Bongolan said, earlier noting that the duo had a “volatile” relationship.
The return throw didn’t make contact with Combs, who “left quickly.”
Bongolan said she never called the cops because she was “scared” of him.
