Los Angeles, CA — In a chilling turn of events, global pop sensation Justin Bieber is once again at the center of controversy after allegedly running over a photographer with his black pickup truck late Tuesday night. The incident occurred outside a popular Beverly Hills venue swarmed by paparazzi awaiting a glimpse of the star. What happened next has left witnesses shaken — and one man possibly dead.
🎥 A Night of Glamour Turns into a Scene of Horror
According to eyewitnesses, Bieber was attempting to drive away from the venue after attending a private event. The area was packed with flashing cameras and shouting fans. As Bieber slowly maneuvered through the crowd, a photographer moved too close to the vehicle. In a sudden moment of chaos, the truck lurched forward and struck the man directly.
“I heard a horrible sound, then saw him lying there — his head was bleeding,” said an onlooker.
“Everyone was screaming. It was like something out of a movie.”
Within seconds, emergency services were called. Shaky cellphone footage captured Bieber stepping out of the vehicle looking horrified, trying to assist the injured man while surrounded by a stunned crowd. Reports from the scene describe the victim as unconscious, with severe trauma to the head.
🧠 Medical Emergency: “The Head Took the Hit”
The man, believed to be a freelance paparazzo in his early 30s, was rushed to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Paramedics reportedly stated that the injuries were life-threatening, and there are unconfirmed reports that he was declared dead upon arrival.
“It wasn’t just a bump — the head took a full blow from the truck’s front end,” said a first responder anonymously.
Authorities are conducting a full investigation to determine if the photographer was in the truck’s blind spot or if excessive crowding led to the accident.
🔍 Not Bieber’s First Run-In With Paparazzi
This isn’t the first time Justin Bieber has had trouble with the paparazzi. In 2017, he was involved in another minor collision with a photographer in Beverly Hills. While that incident ended without severe injury, this time, the consequences appear far graver.
The Los Angeles Police Department has confirmed that they are considering criminal charges, which may include reckless driving or even vehicular manslaughter, depending on the outcome of their inquiry.
Bieber has not yet released an official statement, but sources close to him say the singer is “devastated” by what happened and is cooperating fully with the investigation.

Social media platforms have exploded with reactions. Some fans defend Bieber, blaming the relentless harassment by photographers.
“He’s been chased for years. This isn’t on him,” one fan tweeted.
Others are less forgiving, demanding justice for the injured man and raising questions about celebrity responsibility behind the wheel.
“Being famous doesn’t excuse running over someone. He should be held accountable,” said another user.
The story has ignited a fresh debate about celebrity safety, media ethics, and personal accountability, especially when lives are on the line.
