Justin Bieber is wanted for questioning by Los Angeles County Sheriff's investigators after a paparazzo complained of being roughed up by the pop star at a shopping center.
Sheriff's Lt. Robert Wiard says the photographer in question called 911 on Sunday and complained of pain to his chest.
Wiard said the scuffle happened when the photographer tried to snap pictures of Bieber and his girlfriend Selena Gomez, after they walked out of a theater at The Commons at Calabasas today.

Wiard says the photographer was taken to a hospital where he was treated and released.
He says Bieber and Gomez left before deputies arrived, so investigators want to talk to him to get his side of the story.
During the altercation, the Boyfriend singer appeared to grow angry at photographers snapping him and Selena.

TMZ claims that the paparazzo filed a police report, and alleges that according to law enforcement sources the police are investigating the incident as misdemeanour criminal battery.
While Justin failed to keep calm during the altercation, Selena made up for his shortcomings.
