Tyson detained at LA Airport on suspicion of battery

     Boxing legend Mike Tyson, who became the youngest heavyweight world champion at the age of 20, has been detained on suspicion of battery after an alleged altercation with a photographer at Los Angeles International Airport, according to the police. Tyson's spokeswoman Tammy Brook said the boxer was travelling with his wife and 10-month-old child on Wednesday afternoon when he was attacked by overly aggressive paparazzi. The Sun quoted Brook as saying that Tyson acted in self-defence to protect his child. An airport police spokesman said the incident happened at a United Airlines ticket counter and that the photographer accused Tyson of hitting him. The photographer fell to the ground and cut his forehead. He is being treated at a hospital. He added both Tyson and the photographer want to press charges for misdemeanour battery.
