Cuba Gooding Jr has pleaded not guilty to forcible touching and sexual abuse after a woman accused the actor of groping her.

The 51-year-old Oscar-winning actor was arraigned on Thursday after turning himself in to police.

He smiled as he entered the courtroom in handcuffs and led by two officers.

A 29-year-old woman told police Gooding placed his hand on her breast while he was drunk on Sunday night in a bar in New York City.
