One of 50 Cent’s bodyguards has been arrested after brutally assaulting a group of photographers who were waiting outside the rapper’s Copenhagen hotel.
The shutterbugs were attacked while waiting for Fitty to leave the Skt. Petri Hotel ahead of his performance in the Danish capital.
“I feared for my life,” photographer Nikoloj Vraar told RadarOnline.
“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 added. “He took my camera and deleted photos.”
Danish police did not released the bodyguard’s name but confirmed he worked for the bad boy rapper and has been charged with assaulting two photographers.
“The bodyguard was arrested,” said Vraar, who is editor-in-chief for MSN Star Lounge.
He was taken to Copenhagen hospital to be checked out by doctors and said his next stop would be the police precinct.
“I will be going straight to the police station and complete whatever paperwork is necessary.”
