Justin Bieber Accused of Battery
Justin Bieber's romantic afternoon date with Selena Gomez turned into a nightmare after a scuffle with a photographer on Sunday.
The 18-year-old pop star is being accused on battery by a photographer who says that he and Bieber got into a physical altercation in a parking lot in Calabasas, CA. According to a press release from the Malibu-Lost Hills Sheriff's Station, Bieber and the photog came to blows after the photographer snapped some pictures of Justin and Selena. The A-list couple then left the scene before the authorities arrived.
"The victim complained of pain and requested medical attention. Personnel from the Los Angeles County Fire Department responded. The victim was transported to a local hospital where he was treated and later released," the Sheriff's Station press release states. "The victim requested a criminal report be taken regarding the incident and a allegation of misdemeanor Battery report was taken at the scene."
Neither Justin Bieber nor Selena Gomez have yet commented on the incident, although the "Boyfriend" singer did post this message to his Twitter earlier: "my fans have always been there. from day 1. they are there for me thru everything. they lift me up. so...im there for them. always. #FACT."
