A 2nd day of fighting between Surfers and Paparazzo's on Malibu Beach

June 25, 2008

MALIBU, CALIFORNIA Sunday, June 22, Fighting continues between Surfers and Paparazzo's on Malibu Beach. The turf war began on Saturday when a photographer was viciously beaten by a pack of surfers when trying top take pictures of Matthew McConaughey who lives nearby. One photographers nose was broken, while another was tossed into some rocks and had his camera smashed. The violence continued on Sunday. In the video you see the Paparazzi talking to a security guard who advised them not to stick around through fear of a repeat of Saturday. The surfers then approached and suddenly things boiled over. Around 10 people were involved in a scuffle in which you can see punches being thrown and camera equipment flying into the sea. The police arrived to restore order and a few of the photographers are apparently pressing charges. It looks like the trouble could continue into the summer.
