A photographer is suing Justin Bieber and one of his bodyguards, alleging that the bodyguard threatened him with a gun after the pop star directed the bodyguard to attack him and take the memory card from his camera, according to TMZ.

The site reports that the photographer Jeffrey Binion filed a police report on June 5 which alleged that Bieber's bodyguards attacked him while he was trying to take a photograph of teen entertainer outside of Miami's Hit Factory recording studio.

Binion has now filed a lawsuit against Bieber and bodyguard Hugo Hesny, which claims that Bieber masterminded the attack. Binion says at Bieber's behest, Hesny threw him against a wall, grabbed him by the throat, and "displayed a gun" [holstered under his shirt] while he and the other bodyguards took the memory card from his camera.

Binion (who works as a professional photographer and insists he's not a paparazzo) claims he suffered bodily injury, pain and suffering, mental anguish and incurred medical expenses.

Binion's lawyer, Russell S. Adler, told TMZ, "Justin Bieber is now an adult, and he should act like one. He needs to learn that he cannot use bodyguards as weapons to harm innocent people. Bieber's violent behavior toward photographers must end, and he should take responsibility for his actions." He had more to say, read the TMZ report for more.
