Police documents showed Tomlinson was subjected to a citizen's arrest.

Calder then argued with onlookers who had begun filming the incident.

The photographer was too close for Tomlinson's comfort, "so he allegedly pulled the photographer to the floor by his legs. The photographer fell backwards and struck his back and head on the floor." 

The incident took place as the couple were returning to Los Angeles from a holiday in Las Vegas.
