The 25-year-old British pop star aggressively approached a photographer at LAX after the snapper refused to stop taking photos of the star and his girlfriend, Eleanor Calder, as they were returning from vacation together.
"The whole thing was chaos, and Louis was aggressive and swearing," an eyewitness told RadarOnline.com about Tomlinson's fight.
After Tomlinson's brawl with the photographer, "he then ran over to try to break up the second fight" between his girlfriend and a group of onlookers, an eyewitness told RadarOnline.com. One of the women told The Sun about her altercation with Calder. "She pulled my phone, we started fighting," the stunned 22-year-old said.
The woman admitted she just wanted to see Tomlinson because she was a fan. "The guy just grabbed me and threw me to the floor and socked me and that's it," she claimed. But, the woman insisted that she wants Tomlinson to get jail time for the fight. "Yeah I'm going to press charges," she claimed. An eyewitness to the fight told RadarOnline.com that the woman Tomlinson is accused of striking had a cut above her eye and was shaken when police arrived at the scene.
The photographer involved in the fight, Karl Larssen, told The Sun that Tomlinson had "lunged for the camera" during the melee. He also claimed that the angry star "lifted my leg and then he hit me and I hit my own head." Larsen said, "I was disoriented and I heard everyone screaming."
