The Long Beach Police Department is investigating both Jesse James and a photographer after an altercation earlier this week that was caught on tape.
On the video, which was broadcast on KTLA News, James yells at the paparazzo to leave the area near his business. The photographer claims a friend of James’ slashed his tires
James, who is married to Oscar-winning actress Sandra Bullock, has been followed by photographers after reports that he had several affairs surfaced earlier this month.
Nancy Pratt, a spokeswoman for the Long Beach Police Department, said James was under investigation for vandalism and the paparazzo for stalking.
"An investigation into the incident is ongoing," Pratt told KTLA.
The incident occurred Thursday. Ever since reports of James’ and Bullock’s marital problems were revealed, the paparazzi has been camping out at James’ home in Seal Beach. Neighbors have complained to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department about the photographers, but authorities have said the paparazzi have a right to be there.
