Prosecutors in New York have expanded their case against rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs, accusing him of coercing two additional women into commercial sex acts, and of dangling a person over an apartment balcony.

In a superseding indictment, prosecutors increased the number of alleged victims from one to three and said Combs' criminal conspiracy began years earlier.

Federal prosecutors filed an amended list of charges against the music mogul on Thursday and said he had coerced two additional women into sex acts.
