Buenos Aires investigators sought to question Bieber over the alleged attack, and in November, a judge set a 60-day deadline for the pop superstar to appear before a court in the country or face having an international warrant issued for his arrest.
In April, the judge issued the warrant, and Bieber was facing up to a year behind bars if charged with causing minor injuries.
However, an Argentinian court has now notified Interpol Argentina to withdraw the warrant and erase it from the system, according to a new report from TMZ.com. The reasons for the decision have not been made public.
