Harvey Weinstein[1] is facing 3 new charges for an alleged sexual assault of a woman in 2006.
Manhattan D.A., Cyrus Vance Jr., announced Monday a grand jury has charged Weinstein with a first degree criminal sexual act and 2 counts of predatory sexual assault.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the alleged incident happened on July 10, 2006, and Weinstein allegedly forced oral sex on the woman.
All of the new counts are felonies and carry a minimum sentence of 10 years, and a max of life in prison.
The D.A. did not reveal the alleged victim's name -- but the incident sounds very much like the one a woman named Mimi described during a news conference[2] last year ... with her attorney, Gloria Allred.
Weinstein's already facing 3 other charges[3] for alleged attacks on 2 women in 2004 and 2013.
