Justin Bieber To Address 'Homophobic Laser Tag Incident'

Justin Bieber has been involved in an incident at a laser tag centre in Richmond, British Columbia, according to reports.

Police have launched an investigation after a 12-year-old boy was reportedly assaulted on Friday (October 15).

The victim, who has not been named, is understood to have suffered minimal injuries during an altercation with another player.

The identity of the other teen has not been named although US media reports have claimed it was Bieber, 16.

Police have refused to confirm the identity of either child, according to RCMP.

However, TMZ reports that the alleged victim shouted a homophobic slur at Bieber, who then left the complex without incident.

And in a futher development, Bieber is now set to launch an anti-bullying campaign.

In a message on Twitter, Bieber wrote: "Thanks for everyone supporting the book and the music. Glad i get to share who i really am with u guys."

Meanwhile, Bieber is currently in the middle of an extensive three month tour of North America.
