Getting all up in Mike Tyson's face to take a picture of him is a little different than getting up in Kate Gosselin's face. Everyone paparazzo should know that, but at least one didn't. And he paid for it. TMZ reports:
We're told Tyson was at a ticket counter at the United Airlines terminal when the incident occurred. The photographer got punched in the face, hit the ground, got up and began walking, leaving a trail of blood. An LAPD spokesperson said the photographer suffered a minor laceration to the forehead.
Someone at the scene tells TMZ ... the photographer got very close to Tyson before the boxer struck him. Our says there's blood on the ground and Mike was taken away in a squad car. We're told an ambulance was dispatched at 4:39 PM to LAX and the paparazzo was transported to a local hospital.
Just an idea, but maybe sticking to taking pictures of Lindsay Lohan or Richard Gere on exotic vacations is the better choice for this guy. He probably won't be carving out a "boxer" niche anytime soon, that's for sure.
