Another celebrity, another paparazzi beatdown--this time involving soccer and underwear stud David Beckham.
TMZ is reporting a photographer named Emicles Da Mata filed a suit last month in L.A. Superior Court, in which he claims that on Dec. 7, 2008, he stopped his car on a Beverly Hills street when Beckham reached through the driver's window and grabbed his camera and attempted to wrestle it from him.

The lawsuit also claims Beckham's bodyguard--also a defendant--then beat him repeatedly, grabbed the camera and threw it in a trash can.
