Paparazzo Killed While Taking Pictures of Justin Bieber

Posted: Updated:

Los Angeles, Calif. -- A paparazzo attempting to shoot photos of Justin Bieber's white Ferrari was hit by another car and killed Tuesday evening.

It happened just before 6pm on Interstate 405, near the Getty Center Museum.

According to officers, California Highway Patrol had pulled over the Ferrari for a routine traffic stop. That's when the photographer, who was apparently following the vehicle at the time of the pull over, attempted to snap pictures while officers talked with whomever was in the car.

Los Angeles Police say at some point, the photographer was then struck by an oncoming vehicle and killed. Authorities say Bieber was not driving his Ferrari when it was pulled over; that a friend was.

LAPD continues to investigate the incident.
