As per Mail Online, Tomlinson's lawyer has blamed the photographers for the brawl and stated that and said they had provoked Louis. Apparently, the One Direction singer has asked the photographers to refrain from taking his pics at the airport but they continued to do so.

Moreover, Eleanor is also said to have got into some brawl with the onlookers. The moment Tomlinson and the paparazzi started their fiery showdown smartphones were out and the onlookers started to film the row.

"The paparazzi provoked and caused the altercation that occurred with Louis at the airport this morning," BBC quoted singer's lawyer Martin Singer. "While the altercation was going on with the paparazzi, three other individuals were attacking his girlfriend during this incident and he came to her defense."

The singer first tackled the photographer and during the brawl the paparazzi fell down. Meanwhile, Eleanor and a female fan started a verbal fight, which soon turned physical just feets away. Tomlinson ran to defend his girlfriend and took down the female fan while he was at it.

Louis Tomlinson and his girlfriend were on vacation in Las Vegas and were returning from the trip when the incident happened. Currently, like his band mate Harry Styles, Tomlinson is also working on a solo career.
