Kelly Slater dating Bar Rafaeli?

Israeli police detained Kelly Slater early Saturday after a scuffle with photographers who were trying to take pictures of him with Israeli supermodel Bar Rafaeli, police said.

Israeli photographers were waiting outside as Rafaeli and the American surfer left a hotel in the Tel Aviv suburb of Herzliya before dawn Saturday, police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said. In an effort to prevent the cameramen from taking pictures, Slater pushed them, a photographer at the scene told Channel Two said.

A brawl broke out and Slater was taken for questioning and later released, Rosenfeld said.
