A formal complaint has been filed against Justin Bieber after an incident at a laser tag center last Friday, Canadian Broadcasting Corp. reported Monday night. The father of the 12-year-old boy involved in the incident has lodged a complaint against the teen star with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
The department indicated that it was investigating an incident at Planet Lazer in suburban Vancouver. But further information about the child who reportedly sustained a minor injury at the hands of the 16-year-old pop star was not made public because he is a minor. "In the case where it involves a minor, we're simply not in a position to ever release the person's name," RCMP Corporal Annie Linteau told CBC News.
Bieber had been in Vancouver over the weekend because he had a show in the area on Tuesday night. Ryan Seacrest put out a call on his Twitter to fans who might be going to the show to see if Bieber would comment on the matter, but it was later noted on his Twitter feed that the singer did not in fact address the incident.
"Cool, thx! RT @DARDALUPANG: @RyanSeacrest I went to JB Vancouver Show ... no mention of the 'incident.' He just thanked everyone for support," Seacrest tweeted early Wednesday morning (October 20).
As for Bieber, he has yet to directly comment on the matter, but on Tuesday he did tweet, "Take the high road." He later added, "Vancouver thank u for your support tonight. WE BACK!! #MyWorldTour"
Earlier this week, TMZ reported that after Bieber's camp spoke to police and witnesses backed up his story, it's been concluded that the singer did not instigate the confrontation with the tween, who may have used an anti-gay slur on the pop star. TMZ also reported that Bieber wanted to speak out against bullying after the incident.
