A photographer was struck by a car and killed on Tuesday as he darted across a street after snapping pictures of Justin Bieber’s white Ferrari and the teen heartthrob wasn’t even in the car.
The incident brought the dangers of paparazzi’s often aggressive work into harsh focus, and prompted some celebrities to renew their calls for tougher laws to rein in their pursuers.
In a statement, Bieber said his prayers were with the photographer’s family.
“Hopefully this tragedy will finally inspire meaningful legislation and whatever other necessary steps to protect the lives and safety of celebrities, police officers, innocent public bystanders, and the photographers themselves,” Bieber said in the statement released by Island Def Jam Music Group.
