Bieber Brawls in Southampton

One local fan does not have "Bieber-fever."

Justin Bieber found himself skirting more trouble, this time in the Hamptons.

The pop superstar who has been tabloid fodder recently for his antics reported ripped off his shirt and brawled with a fan while partying at South Pointe nightclub early Sunday morning.

According to The New York Daily News, Bieber was in the VIP section of the club, surrounded by bodyguards, when a male fan started screaming at him. One witness told The Daily News that they saw blood on the shirtless teen as he was led out of the Tuckahoe Lane club by one of his bodyguards.

TMZ.com reported that the 19-year-old sensation and the fan had it out after the fan's friend tried to talk to Bieber and was sent away.

A second incident later took place, at around 4 a.m., according to Southampton Town police report.

The victim — a Hampton Bays resident — said another verbal altercation took place with a group that was with Beiber. He admitted to throwing a rock at a car. He told police that after the rock hit the car, and eight to 10 men got out and and attacked him, injuring him, before security from the club broke up the fight.  

Police are investigating. 

The Sunday melee is the latest in a series of incidents involving Bieber.

Among them, in May, Calabasas Patch reported that the young singer was accused of spitting on and threatening his neighbor while on break from a tour.
