Police have been told Scott Swift, 71, allegedly assaulted a 51-year-old man at Neutral Bay Wharf about 2.30am on February 27.
"The younger man reported the incident and inquiries are now underway by officers attached to North Shore Police Area Command," a NSW Police spokesperson said.
"The man did not require medical treatment."
Video shared on social media shows the pop star covered by an umbrella and holding the arm of Mr Swift as they walk along the wharf towards a car.
Security personnel hold umbrellas up and one flashes a torch towards the camera to obscure their view.
A spokesperson for Taylor Swift said "two individuals were aggressively pushing their way towards Taylor, grabbing at her security personnel, and threatening to throw a female staff member into the water".
The alleged incident came hours after Swift finished her seventh and final show of the Eras Tour in Australia at Sydney's Accor Stadium.
The photographer has been contacted for comment.
