Scott Swift, 71, is accused of striking Ben McDonald, 51, at a ferry wharf in the suburb of Neutral Bay after about 2.30am on Tuesday, after the Australian leg of her Eras tour wrapped up.

Taylor and Scott, affectionately known as Papa Swift, had traveled from Home-bush on a luxury super-yacht called Quantum.
Footage from the moments before the alleged altercation showed Scott walking up wharf while giving photographers the middle finger.A spokeswoman for Taylor Swift told Daily Mail Australia the photographers were being ‘aggressive’. Two individuals were aggressively pushing their way towards Taylor, grabbing at her security personnel, and threatening to throw a female staff member into the water,’ she said.However, Mr McDonald – the chief executive of Matrix Media Group – slammed the statement as ‘utter rubbish’ and said the only female at the scene was Taylor.
Mr McDonald said: ‘This is the sort of bulls**t I might expect.’

‘Which female was that? The only one there was Taylor. Mr McDonald said the altercation was caught on camera and did not show the photographers acting aggressively.An investigation into the alleged incident has been launched by the North Shore Police Command.Earlier on Tuesday, the photographer accused Scott of ‘charging’ at him once he was off the super yacht with Taylor.He originally thought it was a security guard and was shocked when he realized the alleged attacker was the pop star’s dad.

Mr McDonald also said he didn’t know what triggered the alleged assault.

‘In 23 years of taking pictures, I have never seen anything like it,’ he said. She got off the boat, she walked towards security guards who were shoving umbrellas in our faces. Footage of the alleged incident showed Taylor and her father walking up from the wharf with large umbrellas blocking the view.Mr McDonald started shooting when a security guard could be heard telling him not to touch the umbrella.
