SANDY SPRINGS, Georgia—A security guard and driver for pop singer Justin Bieber have been arrested near Atlanta and charged with stealing a photographer’s camera.
Sandy Springs, Georgia, Police Capt. Steve Rose said in a statement that Bieber was at an entertainment complex north of the Georgia capital Tuesday evening when 32-year-old bodyguard Hugo Hesny got into a confrontation with a photographer who he said had gotten too close to the singer.
Rose said Hesny and 49-year-old driver Terrance Johnson followed the photographer to a parking lot and took his camera.
