Justin Bieber At Coachella 2015: Singer Threatens Legal Action After Security Allegedly Puts Him In A Chokehold [VIDEO]

Justin Bieber made an early exit from Coachella on Sunday night after security denied him entry into Drake's set, allegedly by force, according to TMZ.

Bieber tried to use the artist's entry to see Drake sing, but Coachella security stopped him and claimed the space was at max capacity. The 21-year-old singer and his entourage showed their appropriate wristbands but were still not allowed inside.

Security then suggested Bieber watch from the crowd, which he refused to do, arguing that fans would mob him. Again, security didn't budge.

The "Confidant" singer almost made it inside when a Coachella staffer grabbed him by the arm and tried to walk him in, but security came up behind him and wrapped him in a chokehold.

A small scuffle took place between Bieber's security and the festival's security, and he was reportedly ordered to leave. Sources told TMZ that Bieber left voluntarily but is threatening legal action against the guards.

Bieber attended most of the first weekend of Coachella. The music festival in Indio, Calif., continues next weekend from April 17 to April 19.
