    Crowds: A melee ensued when Justin Bieber came outside to greet fans during a publicity event in New York
    These pictures show the dramatic scenes as an undercover NYPD cop was allegedly taken out by one of Justin Bieber's own bodyguards.
    The undercover policeman was mistaken for a crazed fan trying to attack the teenage superstar in a bizarre melee that resulted in one of Bieber's own security guards being issued with a summons.
    The pint-sized singer was at an event at Macy's department store in New York when the cop was allegedly grabbed by a bodyguard as screaming teenage girls surged towards the 17-year-old.

    The plain-clothed officer stepped in to protect the Canadian heartthrob from the crowd surge when an overprotective Bieber bodyguard allegedly grabbed him and tried to pull him away from the boy.
    Bieber was reportedly shaken up by the incident, which saw the bodyguard issued a summons for disorderly conduct.

    Initial reports from the scene had suggested that a man had jumped the barricades, attacking Bieber and knocking him to the ground - but police have since denied that he was touched or hurt.
    ‘It was a momentary well-intentioned misunderstanding and the event went well,’ a spokesman for Bieber told the New York Post. ‘He’s completely fine and has no injuries.’
    A witness said the 17-year-old Canadian singer shouted: 'What? What?' as the incident happened, before rushing back into the store and not talking to waiting reporters.

    Dozens of fans had camped out in front of the famous store for two days to get the opportunity to meet their idol, who was doing a personal appearance to launch his new fragrance Someday.
    Another witness told the New York Daily News that people who had been waiting for hours got too excited and began pushing the barrier down, meaning he did not even get time to wave at his fans.
    Bieber tweeted this evening: ‘today went well at macy's.. the fans were AMAZING, thanks to all the fans who came out to support it was a breath of fresh air :)’
    He had appeared on The View on Thursday morning and tweeted before his Macy’s appearance: 'Gonna chill..grab a bit..then see everyone at MACY's for the #SOMEDAY launch. LEGGO!!'

    Bieber's fans, known as 'Beliebers', rallied to support the singer after the incident, on the initial understanding that somebody had tried to attack him.
    One young lady was so overcome by the incident that she had to be carried away by police officers.
    Bieber has had other security scares including at an event in 2009 at the Roosevelt Field Mall that was cancelled after thousands of fans mobbed the shopping centre.
    He tweeted to his followers to leave the mall because police threatened to arrest out of control fans.

    Back from the dead: Astonishing pictures show how Japan is recovering just three months after tsunami

    Just three months ago Japan was plunged into chaos after a cataclysmic earthquake sent a merciless tsunami crashing through towns and cities up and down the east coast.
    The unforgiving tide of water obliterated tens of thousands of buildings, devouring almost anything in its path. Thousands of people died and hundreds of bodies have never been recovered.
    The heart-breaking images of families desperately searching for loved ones amid the rubble of their homes sent shockwaves around the world.
    Now, three months on, these images show the Japanese people remain undaunted by the havoc nature has wreaked on their homeland as step by step they rebuild their nation.

    But despite their progress, stark reminders of the work left to do means the resilience of this Asian country is still being tested.
    Headway in the clean-up has been made in the town of Otsuchi in Iwate Prefecture where the pleasure boat ''Hamayuri'', which was remarkably washed up on the rooftop of an inn, has been removed, along with a building shattered by the the wall of water.
    Further down is an image of a Shinto shrine gate in the town three days after the March 11 disaster.
    The same spot on June 3 which shows thousands of tonnes of rubbish, which had lay smouldering in an almost post-apolcalyptic landscape, has been cleared, roads re-laid and power lines restored.
    Civilisation appears to have returned in Natori in Miyagi prefecture too. The first image shows a towering wall of ocean crashing through trees devastating homes and businesses lining the coast, tearing down power lines and drowning anything in its path.

    Astonishingly just one house survived the wave and a lone digger is pictured having cleared away the once thriving community reduced to rubble. Hundreds of cars parked in the foreground remain abandoned and appear to be the only reminder of the devastation.
    Similarly, the striking image of a ship atop tonnes of rubble in the Kesennuma in Miyagi prefecture on March 20 was projected around the world and became a symbol of the disaster.
    The photograph shows grey smoke filled skies above a path of destruction, but three months on, much of the debris has been cleared, power lines restored and hope is on the horizon.
    A car park in a shopping centre, filled with houses and debris in Otsuchi town in Iwate prefecture is also back on its feet and signs of life are returning. Parking spaces are clearly visible where piles of wood, bricks, and vehicles lay strewn just a few weeks ago.

    The final image shows local people walking through debris on a street in Kesennuma, Miyagi Prefecture to get water 48 hours after the disaster. The same image on June 3 shows the massive tank which lay in the road has gone and a damaged house on the left side of the street has been cleared and restored.
    The 9.0 magnitude earthquake caused the worst crisis in Japan since the Second World War and left almost 28,000 people dead or missing.
    The clean-up bill is expected to top £184 billion and radiation fears from the stricken Fukushima nuclear plant are still growing after four of the reactors were damaged leading to radiation leaks.
    This week, an earless bunny was born near the reactor in north east Japan raising concerns the radiation could have long-term side effects.
    Following the blast and initial leaks Japanese officials told people living near the plant to stay indoors and turn of air conditioning and also to not drink tap water.
    High levels of radiation are known to cause cancer and other health problems but scientists are not yet clear if the defect in the rabbit is linked to the blast.

    Japan's economy slipped into recession following the devastation and new data shows it shrank 0.9 percent in the first quarter of this financial year but experts say a recovery later this year as industry kicks into action.
    Industrial output rose one per cent in April from a record decline in March.
    Manufacturers are making progress in restoring supply chains and ecnomists are predicting Gross Domestic Project to begin expanding again between July and September.
