"I can't comment on any individual case, but the practice of celebrities hiring off-duty officers for private security purposes is common practice here," said a spokesperson from the Los Angeles Police Department.

"I didn't notice him at first. He kept in the background very discreetly. But I noticed him when David walked over and handed him a plastic toy that the youngsters had been playing with," Kamara said.
