Former heavyweight champ Mike Tyson has been sued for $25 million by a photographer, who claims the boxer beat him down last November.
Tyson was arrested after a run-in with a photographer at LAX, reports TMZ.com.
He was initially booked for misdemeanor battery, but the LA City Attorney officially rejected the case, citing "insufficient evidence."
According to the civil lawsuit, the photographer -- Antonio Echavarria -- claims Tyson attacked him, hit him with a closed left fist, and broke his camera.
Echavarria also claims he suffered a concussion and strain to his spinal cord.
He's asking for $25 million in damages.
