Singer Justin Bieber was arrested and charged over Labor Day weekend with assault and dangerous driving after an incident near a small Canadian town, police confirmed this week.
The case could complicate the singer's probation in Los Angeles.
Charges were filed after two drivers got into a "physical altercation," on Aug. 29, Perth County Ontario Provincial Police said in a release.
An all-terrain vehicle and a minivan collided near Stratford, Ontario, which is where Bieber, 20, grew up, according to Reuters.
Bieber was visiting the Canadian province with former Disney TV star and pop singer Selena Gomez. The two have been in a four-year, on-and-off relationship.
"Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez' peaceful retreat in Stratford this weekend was unfortunately disrupted by the unwelcome presence of paparazzi," Bieber's lawyer, Brian Greenspan, said in an emailed statement to Reuters.
"This has regrettably resulted in charges of dangerous driving and assault."
Bieber, who is known for songs like "Boyfriend," "Baby," and "Never Say Never," has been a paparazzi target for a couple of years now and has gained more attention for his legal issues than his music.
The singer's latest run-in with the law could add to his legal issues in Los Angeles, where Bieber is on probation after pleading no contest in July to misdemeanor vandalism for pelting a neighbor's home with eggs, according to Reuters.
Arrests normally trigger an inquiry into a possible probation violation, said Reaver Bingham, the deputy chief of field services at the Los Angeles County Probation Department.
Bingham didn't say whether or not the department was looking into Bieber's latest arrest.
Bieber's latest arrest comes just weeks after he pleaded guilty to careless driving and resisting an officer without violence in Florida as part of a settlement deal on allegations that he was caught drag racing in a Lamborghini under the influence of drugs and alcohol.
