The Los Angeles chief of police has rejected calls for an anti-paparazzi law, after councillors and locals complained that the press gang “act like a pack of wolves”.

According to the Times, police chief William Bratton said the proposals were a waste of time. “There are currently on the books sufficient laws, rules and regulations [to deal with photographers],” he said.
