I'm sure that no one is surprised by the latest in the Mike Tyson drama that seems to never end. Tyson had a run-in with a photographer at the Los Angeles International Airport, and the bad part is it could possibly send him to jail if it violates his probation. As you may remember he had a drug case in Arizona about two years ago.
Iron Mike Tyson May Be Headed Back To Jail
I’m sure that no one is surprised by the latest in the Mike Tyson drama that seems to never end. Tyson had a run-in with a photographer at the Los Angeles International Airport, and the bad part is it could possibly send him to jail if it violates his probation. As you may remember he had a drug case in Arizona about two years ago.
I contacted the Maricopa County Probation Office and was told that their office will soon start court proceedings to determine if Tyson did or didn’t violate his parole. Personally I think Mike has been on a pretty good path to putting his life back together. I hope that he pulls through this.
According to the sources on the scene, both Tyson and the photographer Tony Echeverria both claimed that struck during an altercation. Reports say that only the photographer was treated for minor injuries. Another source told Jackin4Beats Magazine that the photographer suffered from a minor cut to his forehead. We were told that the man was treated and released from the hospital.
After the altercation both men were held by airport police on suspicion of a misdemeanor battery, but were released after questioning. We were told that the fate of both men will rest upon the city attorney who will ultimately decide whether to file charges or not.
Mike Tyson had a, ummm little run in with the law a few years back. He had pleaded guilty to cocaine possession and driving under the influence charges.
An on the spot Jackin4Beats reader text from his cell phone to say that Tyson was extremely corporative with airport police, and after taking their report they let Tyson continue his trip.
Tyson’s spokeswoman Tammy Brook said the boxer was traveling with his wife and 10-month-old child when he was attacked by an overly aggressive paparazzi.
“Mike acted in self defense as a father protecting his child,” she said.
Echeverria’s camera was booked as evidence and police also were checking if there was any surveillance video of the incident.
Personally I understand that the paparazzi’s are just doing there job, however my question is a simple one. At what point should it be considered crossing the line as far a paparazzi’s are concerned? I also understand that the are entitled to their freedom of speech and all of that mumble jumble, but be honest… Some of them take things too far.
