The altercation reportedly took place outside the Clovelly Hotel in Sydney’s eastern suburbs at 3.30pm on Saturday.

“The man sustained no injuries,” a NSW Police spokesman said.
‘Investigations into the incident are continuing.’
Elordi, who recently starred in blockbuster Saltburn, was at the hotel enjoying himself for several hours before the alleged incident unfolded.
The Australian Hollywood star, 26, raised eyebrows earlier this month when he made disparaging remarks about The Kissing Booth film franchise, which he starred in between 2018 and 2021, in his GQ Men of the Year cover story.
“I didn’t want to make those movies until I made those movies,” he told the publication, adding, “Those movies are ridiculous. They’re not universal. They’re an escape.’
But fans of The Kissing Booth have slammed Elordi online, calling him ‘ungrateful’ and ‘disrespectful’ to his former colleagues.
“Jacob Elordi needs to understand that when you screw up a project like he did, he screws up his co-stars, the creators, and especially the fans,” one user wrote.
‘Those films are important to many fans. Don’t reject them because you suddenly moved up a stick,” they added.
