Justin Bieber accused of attempted robbery in LA

Justin Bieber is being investigated by police in Los Angeles over attempted robbery claims.

The singer, who has not been arrested, was accused of robbery by an unnamed victim, police said.

According to TMZ, Justin Bieber, 20, is accused of reaching into a woman’s bag and taking her phone after she had taken pictures of him at a mini golf course in Los Angeles.

“As of right now, no arrest has been made and detectives are currently interviewing the victim,” said police.

Justin Bieber has had a troubled start to 2014, after being arrested for driving under the influence in Miami. A trial is due to begin there in July.

Police in California also searched his home after he allegedly threw eggs at a neighbor’s house.

Three weeks ago, Justin Bieber was detained at Los Angeles International Airport and questioned by customs officers, after returning from Asia.

However, no formal action was taken and Justin Bieber was released after four hours.
