In Sydney, an incident involving an Australian photographer and Taylor Swift's father has sparked a police investigation. The photographer reported being punched by Swift's father on Neutral Bay wharf early Tuesday morning, shortly after Swift's final concert in Sydney. Authorities confirmed they were looking into an alleged assault between a 71-year-old man, believed to be Scott Swift, and another individual at around 2:30 am. Although Swift's father was not named by the police, he fits the age description.

Reports suggest that the photographer was waiting for Taylor Swift and her father as they disembarked from a late-night cruise on Sydney Harbour. While Taylor Swift had already entered a car when the incident occurred, she was reportedly accompanied by her father at the time. According to statements from a spokesperson for Taylor Swift provided to Rolling Stone, two individuals were behaving aggressively towards Swift and her team, leading to the altercation. They allegedly attempted to push through security and threatened staff members.

The photographer involved, Ben McDonald, claimed that Swift's entourage used umbrellas to obstruct his photography efforts, leading to the confrontation involving Swift's father. This incident occurred following the conclusion of Taylor Swift's Australian leg of her Eras tour on Monday evening.
