Photographer claims singer Lana Del Rey's bodyguards attacked him with a box cutter.
A Lana Del Rey film shoot turned into a bloody brawl ... according to a photog who claims he was attacked by 3 thugs with a box cutter ... to stop him from taking pics of LDR ... and he's gonna sue.
Karl Larsen -- a well-known concert photographer who shoots for Rolling Stone magazine -- claims in a lawsuit that will be filed later this week ... he happened on the L.A. River last June and saw Del Rey shooting her "Tropico" video ... and was confronted by 3 dudes from the production company.
Larsen says the men ordered him to stop shooting ... when Larsen insisted he was within his rights ... one guy threatened to smash his $14K camera and another tried to rip it from his hand.
Larsen claims one of the men whipped out a box cutter razor and slashed his finger -- which required stitches -- while another guy grabbed his camera and erased the memory card.
Larsen's suit against the production company, Black Hand Cinema, seeks $1 MIL minimum -- claiming the company has a habit of intimidating photographers.
We've reached out to reps for Lana and the production company ... so far, no word back.Jacked from TMZ
