A paparazzo who was charged with battery and child endangerment after attempting to get a photo of Reese Witherspoon and her children at a Disney theme park has been found dead.

The photographer who allegedly hit a child with his camera while clambering to snap actress Reese Witherspoon has been issued with an arrest warrant for failing to attend a bail hearing.

Actress Reese Witherspoon is adamant her work with the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) to investigate illegal and dangerous tactics used by the paparazzi is entirely necessary, because they are ruining her life and terrifying her children.
