Beverly Hills Police Department confirmed that Bieber unintentionally hit a member of the paparazzi. According to the Los Angeles Times, he remained at the scene and fully cooperated with officers . No citations were issued.

The unidentified photographer was taken to an area hospital with minor injuries.

On Monday, Bieber abruptly canceled the remaining dates of his “Purpose” world tour, citing “unforeseen circumstances.” His longtime manager, Scooter Braun, posted a message on Instagram about the cancellation, saying, “A man’s soul and well-being I truly care about came first and we must all respect and honor that.”
