David Beckham is being sued by a photographer who is claiming that the soccer star and his bodyguard attacked him.
In the lawsuit filed last month at the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Emicles Da Mata claims that he stopped his car on a Beverly Hills street when the England midfielder reached through the driver's window and grabbed Da Mata's camera, attempting to wrestle it from him.
The court papers say that Beckham's bodyguard then beat Da Mata repeatedly, took his camera and threw it in a bin.
The incident,
which happened on December 7, 2008, alerted local police who immediately arrived on the scene.
The police ordered all parties involved to sit on the curb outside the Beverly Hills City Hall while they collected information.
Da Mata says he was injured during the assault and is suing for assault and battery and emotional distress.
The court documents say Da Mata is seeking unspecified damages.

While all of us are cutting costs and trying to spend less to survive the economic crisis facing the world, David and Victoria Beckham are still living their lavish life. The famous footballer, who is currently on loan to Italian powerhouse AC Milan gave the former Spice Girl an £80,000 handbag for Christmas.
We spotted Posh Spice sporting this Birkin bag, which is one of only three in the world, during her husband's
debut against Hamburg on January 6th. But don't get any ideas about trying to get one these Himlayan bags yourself, which have a three carat diamond in the lock, there is a four year wait and the waiting list is closed.

David Beckham
made his much anticipated debut
for AC Milan in a friendly against Hamburg SV held in Dubai. On loan
from the LA Galaxy so he can stay in shape and in contention for a spot
on the English national team, Becks played the first half with wife
Victoria and his three boys, Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz cheering from the stands.
"To me he gave a very good impression," said Milan's coach
Carlo Ancelotti. "Dynamic quality and also he is an intelligent
player."
"Obviously he is not at his maximum because for two months
he didn't do anything but he had a good week with us and now he
is in a good condition and can make a good contribution to the
team."
The game ended tied, 1-1 but Milan pulled out a victory on penalty kicks, 4-3.

David Beckham showed off his impressive form-- and a heart monitor-- while working out with AC Milan in Dubai this week. At the end of his workout with other notable athletes like Ronaldinho, he sucked down some water, spit it out, and splashed himself as well. Erm, very impressive workout, David!
Despite reports that his new tattoo, which reads "My son, do not forget my teaching but keep my commands in your heart," got Victoria irritated, people are now saying she helped him design it
herself. Either way, it's quite the addition to a nice canvas, wouldn't you say?

David Beckham-- all in pics and with no voiceover. Wheee! I think we can probably get over
Hugh Jackman's New York departure (sob!) with something like this, don't you? Ignoring the fact that David Beckham's
going to be in Italy until he rejoins his team in mid 2009, that is.
