Case closed for Taylor Swift's father targeted by complaint in Australia

Australian police announced on Tuesday that they were closing the case involving Taylor Swift's father, accused by a photographer of hitting him during a stop by the American singer in Sydney at the end of February.

An “assault investigation” was opened and concluded without “any further police action” being necessary, police said in a statement.

“Hit in the ribs”

The complainant, a 71-year-old photographer, claimed to have been "hit in the ribs" by Scott Swift near a Sydney pontoon where the star had disembarked from a yacht. Scott Swift was able to leave Australia.

The alleged incident occurred after the singer had just performed four sold-out concerts in Australia as part of her "Eras Tour" world tour.
