Two members of Hollywood actor Leonardo DiCaprio's security team were arrested Monday in Jerusalem by Israeli police after they fought with photographers following DiCaprio and supermodel Bar Refaeli's private tour of the tunnels next to the Western Wall, according to a police spokesman.

Micky Rosenfeld said the photographers waited outside the tunnels for the couple to emerge near Judaism's holiest site in the walled Old City.

"Two of his (DiCaprio's) security guards were arrested by police after being involved in a fight that broke out," Rosenfeld said. "They are being questioned."

Covering their faces after the tour, DiCaprio and Refaeli were driven away in a waiting white van.

DiCaprio arrived in Israel with Refaeli this weekend, creating a paparazzi storm.

The 32-year-old Hollywood actor and Refaeli, 21, have been romantically linked for about a year, and Israeli newspapers regularly run updates on their relationship.

They apparently hoped to sneak into the country unnoticed on a night flight from Frankfurt, Germany, on Sunday, but the plane was also carrying a group of Israeli entertainment reporters on their way back from a press junket in Ireland.

By the time DiCaprio and Refaeli headed for her family's home in an upscale Tel Aviv suburb, they had been besieged by dozens of photographers.

But all the cameramen were able to capture was a blurry shot of the couple, their faces obscured, being driven to the home of Refaeli's parents.

On Monday, the pair escaped the photographers and traveled to Jerusalem, where they paid an after-hours visit to the Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial, museum spokeswoman Estee Yaari said.

They later visited the Western Wall and its tunnels, Rosenfeld said. Police kept paparazzi back to shield the famous couple from exposure.
