A member of 50 Cent’s security detail has been arrested over the assault of at least two photographers in Copenhagen this past weekend.
Apparently as photographers waited outside of 50’s hotel, they were approached by the bodyguard and rather than just having words exchanged, the bodyguard went right for the photographers throat.
He recalls;
One of 50 Cent’s bodyguards came out and told us to leave. The next thing I knew, he grabs my throat and tried to strangle me. He cut off my airway, and I couldn’t breathe. He took my camera and deleted photos.
Hotel security came out and told us to call the police and that is what we did. I think the bodyguard attacked at least 2 other people. The bodyguard was arrested and I was told by the police that he was going to be charged with assault, threats and robbery.
50 never seems to be too upset over the photos when he’s here! Wonder what got into his security this trip?
The Copenhagen PD charged the man with assault on two photographers.
Professional Bodyguards need to exercise restraint and control. If there is no risk of violence to your client than, a physical altercation need not happen, get your client into the waiting vehicle or hotel as fast as possible. Don’t risk damaging your client’s image with poor publicity. Just my 02 Cents for 50 Cents’ Bodyguard Team. Keep Safe Out There.
