Taylor Swift’s dad, Scott Swift, has avoided an assault charge in Australia after a paparazzo accused him of attacking him following the megastar’s final show in Sydney.
A paparazzo accused Scott Swift of attacking him in the hours after the megastar’s final show in Sydney.
Ben McDonald, aged 51, informed the police that he was struck in the face by Scott Swift, aged 72, on a wharf in Sydney on February 27th. McDonald stated that he did not require medical assistance.
A spokesperson for Swift stated at the time that two individuals had been exhibiting aggressive behavior towards the renowned star.
After conducting a month-long investigation, the New South Wales police announced on Tuesday that no further action would be pursued.
The altercation occurred shortly after Mr. Swift and his daughter disembarked from a yacht following her final Eras Tour performance in Sydney.
Footage released by Australian media depicts the singer, who is shielded by an umbrella, walking with her father and security personnel along Neutral Bay Wharf at approximately 02:30 local time (15:30 GMT).
In the video, flashes from cameras are seen before two voices, purportedly a photographer and a guard, accuse each other of interfering with umbrellas. Whether the footage captures the alleged incident is unclear.
Mr. McDonald previously informed the BBC that Swift had already been seated inside a vehicle when Swift “suddenly charged in” and assaulted him without any prior provocation.
“I’ve been in this profession for 23 years, and never have I encountered a situation where someone has struck me in the face,” he stated.
However, a representative for the singer contradicted this, stating: “Two individuals aggressively approached Taylor, forcefully grabbing at her security team and making threats towards a female staff member, including attempting to push her into the water.”
Fondly referred to as “Papa Swift” by fans of the renowned pop star, Mr. Swift had been accompanying his daughter on her global Eras Tour and departed the country shortly after the altercation.
It turns out that Taylor Swift’s dad, Scott Swift, was involved in an altercation with a man at a hotel in Australia, but fortunately, he won’t be facing any assault charges. According to reports, the police decided not to pursue the matter any further due to a lack of evidence. It’s definitely been a wild ride for the Swift family, but hopefully, things will simmer down. We’re sending positive vibes to the Swifts during this time. Stay tuned for updates, and don’t forget to keep supporting Taylor Swift and her family through it all!
