Paparazzo killed on freeway after photographing Justin Bieber car Posted: 02 Jan 2013 07:12 AM PST Justin Bieber performs at the Jingle Ball 2012 in Atlanta, Georgia December 12, 2012. — Reuters pic Bieber wasn't in his car, which had been pulled over by California Highway Patrol officers on Interstate 405 for suspected speeding, Los Angeles Police Department Officer Cleon Joseph said today. Highway patrol officers saw the 29-year-old paparazzo taking photographs of the scene yesterday evening and ordered him to return to his car for safety reasons, Joseph said. The photographer, whose name was not released, refused to leave. After officers repeated their order, he was struck while trying to cross four lanes of traffic, Joseph said. Charges were unlikely to be filed against the driver who struck the photographer, the officer said. Bieber was stopped by police for speeding on a Los Angeles freeway last July. He told officers he was being hounded by paparazzi at the time. Prosecutors charged a celebrity photographer under a California law that criminalizes dangerous driving when taking photos commercially, but a judge later dismissed those counts. — Reuters |

"Skyfall" achieved the figure in just 40 days, while "Avatar" (2009) took 11 months to amass its total. Globally, the new Bond film has taken more than US$1 billion. It is a mark of the franchise's continuing appeal as it celebrates its 50th anniversary. Daniel Craig's third appearance as British secret agent Bond is still on general release more than two months after it first hit British cinemas. The movie sees Bond battling with villain Raoul Silva (played by Javier Bardem), who aims to take revenge on his former boss M (Judi Dench). — AFP/Relaxnews |
