Security guard version

Dixon told police he saw a group of people near the check-in desk of a private event at the hotel trying to enter without permission.

In trying to stop the invasion, they began to shout and “make a scene.” Sean would have come very close, touching his nose to his, and he asked the singer’s son to walk away. That’s when security was pushed and assaulted by Rod Stewart.

From then on, Dixon began to complain, which caused the family’s unrest. Police said the case had two witnesses working at the hotel and confirmed the security version. The hotel cameras also caught the scene.
