Taylor Swift's father, Scott Swift, is under investigation in New South Wales, Australia, following an alleged altercation with members of the paparazzi.
TMZ reports that New South Wales police are investigating an alleged assault after a photographer named Ben McDonald made a complaint against Swift.
McDonald alleges he was photographing Taylor Swift at Neutral Bay Wharf early Tuesday morning when Scott charged at him and knocked him to the ground. At least part of the incident was captured on video and shared with TMZ.
In a statement responding to the allegation, a rep for Taylor Swift said: “Two individuals aggressively pushed their way toward Taylor, grabbed her security staff, and threatened to throw a female staff member into the water.”
Swift recently wrapped up the Australian leg of “The Eras Tour” with a series of shows in Sydney. She will then head to Singapore for six sold-out shows.
