A security guard for 50 Cent has been arrested in Copenhagen for assaulting several paparazzi outside a hotel, according to Radar Online.

“A man has been charged with assaulting two photographers. We don’t release the name of the person involved, but it’s my understanding he works for 50 Cent,” a Copenhagen police official says. Nikoloj Vraa, one of the members of the press involved, tells the website that he feared for his life.

“One of 50 Cent’s bodyguards came out and told us to leave,” he says. “The next thing I knew, he grabs my throat and tried to strangle me.

“He cut off my airway, and I couldn’t breathe. He took my camera and deleted photos.”
