According to a report from TMZ, photographers showed up at Pasternak's house hoping to get a shot of Robert Pattinson. The trainer says he told the paps that Pattinson wasn't coming, but that they didn't believe him and came onto his property, at which point Pasternak asked them to leave.

In response, TMZ reports, the paparazzo said, "I'm gonna kill you and your family," and then reached for something in his car. (An insider tells Us that police found pepper spray in his hand.) Pasternak subdued him until law enforcement arrived.

The photographer reportedly denies making any death threats. However, several neighbors gave statements to the cops that corroborate Pasternak's story.
