  2. Paparazzo could make the mob more dangerous - their flashes blind you for X seconds (ala Boomer), so you have to look away making you vulnerable from that side. To get rid of them, one of you either sacrifices your sight for a few seconds or dons their sunglasses - which uses up one hand, so they can only use their pistol.
