NBA and reality star Lamar Odom trashed a car and camera equipment owned by a member of the paparazzi on July 10 according to TMZ.

Video footage of Odom throwing a camera bag onto a street in Hollywood made its way online and has since gone viral.

The contents of the bag can be seen spilling out onto the street before Odom is seen grabbing a camera stand. He then takes out his frustrations on another camera man's vehicle, hitting it more than once with the stand.

Odom has yet to say what caused the outburst as of press time. He was seen picking up the camera equipment from the road and putting it inside his car before driving away.

One witness claims Odom wanted to talk to one of the photographers "man to man" and Odom didn't snap until after the man declined to talk.

Some media outlets have speculated Odom and his reality-show wife Khloe Kardashian have had martial trouble lately. The Daily Mail claims one woman has come forward and said she's had a relationship with Odom for over a year.

Kardashian took to Twitter to defend her man against the paparazzi however, claiming this isn't the first time a member of her family has had a run in with one of the two photographers.

A group of people on a celebrity tour bus happened to be driving by as the incident took place according to the Daily Mail. A number of the people on the bus were able to take video footage of the incident as it went down.

At least one of the photographers has filed a police report for vandalism.

Despite the attack, the 6 foot 10 basketball player stopped shortly after to pose for a picture with a fan according to TMZ.
