Some snappers do harmless things like hiding in a bush a mile away from Jennifer Aniston’s house and taking pictures of her boobies. But some snappers are a bit more nasty.
Like the photographer who tried to take a picture of Reese Witherspoon at Disney’s California Adventure in September, but ended up allegedly punching a five-year-old girl in the face with a camera instead. Now a court has issued a warrant for the photographer’s arrest.
Todd Kevin Wallace was charged with assault after apparently
smacking a five-year-old girl with a camera, pushing two park
attendants and making some children cry after Reese Witherspoon (DVDs) told
him that he couldn’t take any pictures of her at the Disney park in
Anaheim.
On Friday Wallace was due in an Orange County court for a bail
hearing, but the paparazzo didn’t show, and an arrest warrant was
given. Wallace faces four counts of battery, one count of false
imprisonment and
causing and permitting a child to suffer, and one count of inflicting
unjustifiable mental suffering – and could be looking at four years in
prison if he’s found guilty.
If Todd Kevin Wallace goes to prison, it won’t be the first time. In
1993, he served four years for second-degree burglary and receiving
goods by fraud.
Reese Witherspoon, though, has bigger things on her mind than
photographers slamming cameras into kiddies’ faces. She’s been
nominated for a Golden Globe for playing a dead cowboy’s wife in Walk The Line. Sadly, Reese’s performance as a ghost that wants to have sex with a man in Just Like Heaven has gone bizarrely unrecognised.
