Soon as I heard last month that Scottie Pippen was involved in some sort of altercation with a fan in Malibu, California, I knew the word “lawsuit” would soon follow. Yesterday it did. 49 year old Carman Shafighi filed the suit in court. He is saying he was an innocent fan who wanted an autograph for his girlfriend’s 12 year old son on June 23rd. He is saying Pippen attacked him after he asked for the autograph and the attack left him left him in the hospital with a head injury. However Pippen and some people who were at the restaurant where it took place have a different view of the night. Hit the jump.
