Britney Spears will not be charged in relation to a photographer’s claim that she ran over his foot in November last year, with the district attorney saying “there was much commotion” at the time of the incident that “there is no proof” of her guilt.
Spears was attempting to reverse out of a parking spot at the Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles on November 14 while surrounded by the paparazzi, with videos of the incident circulating online.
The charge evaluation sheet uncovered by TMZ shows that the photographer filed a police report almost six months after the incident.
Deputy district attorney Joseph D. Shidler writes, “The video indicates that there was a lot of noise and confusion as the photographers were jockeying for position… The driver of the car (Spears) was driving at an extremely slow rate of speed and in a straight path. The only way the victim’s foot could have been where the video indictes it to be was by the victim placing it in that location.”
He adds, “We have no evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the suspect was aware that the victim’s foot had been struck by the car.”
