Hugh Grant Arrested Over Beaning Incident
Actor Hugh Grant has been arrested over a Tuesday incident in which the British actor allegedly assaulted a photographer with a tub of baked beans. That’s right… beans!
Ian Whitaker, a 43-year-old paparazzo, told the Daily Star that “Grant swore at him, kicked him and threw a tupperware container of beans at him near the actor’s home on Tuesday morning after Whitaker asked if he could snap his picture.”
"He was effing and blinding at me and then he just started kicking me,” Whitaker told the Star.
The NY Daily News contacted a spokeswoman for Scotland Yard, who confirmed that an allegation of assault was under investigation and that Grant came to Notting Hill police station Wednesday night and was arrested.
The ‘Music and Lyrics’ star, however, never actually made it behind bars - as he was fingerprinted, provided a DNA sample, and told to return in May - the Evening Standard reported.
This is Hugh’s first brush with the law since his high-profile 1995 LA arrest, for which he was fined for lewd conduct with prostitute Divine Brown.
