NEWS: MIKE TYSON ARRESTED AT LAX; RELEASED ON SUSPICION OF MIS. BATTERY

November 12th, 2009

Former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson and photographer Tony Echevarria want to press charges against each other following a scuffle at LAX on Wednesday.

According to reports, Echevarria told police Tyson hit him once, and he fell to the ground. Tyson’s spokeswoman said the boxer, who was traveling with his wife and 10-month-old daughter, was attacked by the overly aggressive paparazzo: “Mike acted in self-defense as a father protecting his child”.

Both men were booked and released on suspicion of misdemeanor battery. Police are checking whether there was any surveillance video of the incident.

    The smirk on Mike’s face leads me to believe this is a ploy to keep his name in the headlines. He did, after all, offer his daughter’s life to guarantee extended fame.

    I am with Mike on this one. People have a right to a certain level of respect and privacy. You don’t have take your camera and try and put it all in this man’s kid face. It is nothing people won’t do to protect their children. So I got Mike on this one.
