No one was injured in a car crash that resulted from a paparazzi chase in Los Angeles on Tuesday afternoon. Photographers were so desperate to get a good photo of Justin Bieber that they chased the Escalade he was traveling in and then caused an accident which could have hurt or killed not only people in the vehicles but passers-by, as well.
From TMZ:
We’re told the Escalade was going down Canon Drive at a fast clip, trying to lose the photog, when a BMW was pulling out of a parking structure near Bouchon restaurant. An eyewitness tells us … the BMW misjudged the speed of the Escalade and smashed into it.
We’re told Bieber almost immediately got out of the SUV and into another car and sped off.
Yes, the BMW “misjudged” – ie he wasn’t paying attention because he was too busy trying to snap pictures. Look, it’s all fine and well for photogs to be “trying to make a living” with their “job” of chasing celebrities, but they don’t have to be scumbags and endanger people’s lives because of it. It’s time for that shit to end.
