Scottie Pippen Restaurant Fight: Alleged Victim Breaks Teeth, Rescued By Ambulance After Beating From Former Chicago Bulls Star

Former Chicago Bulls star Scottie Pippen allegedly knocked out an autograph seeker on Sunday, breaking his teeth and sending him to the care of an ambulance, according to TMZ.

The alleged victim, whom Scottie Pippen says was intoxicated, suffered injuries to his head and back after the ex-NBA star punched him in the face and kicked him repeatedly, TMZ also reports.

Scottie Pippen was not arrested.

The brawl began when the unidentified victim was inside the restaurant taking photos as Scottie Pippen dined with his family in a Malibu restaurant on Sunday evening.

The basketball fan followed Scottie Pippen and his family into the parking lot after their dinner and proceeded to snapping photos of the Chicago Bulls star.

After Scottie Pippen was drawn into an argument that led to the fight, he punched and kicked the autograph seeker before he was rushed to the hospital.

"Right now it's under investigation," Los Angeles County Sherriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore told ESPN. "We have to interview everybody to find out what happened."

The police official also told ESPN that the man who fought Scottie Pippen was intoxicated.

Scottie Pippen, 47, played alongside basketball legend Michael Jordan and was named one of the NBA's 50 greatest players in 1996, the height of the Chicago Bulls' fame.
