[IMG: LHugh Grant has been involved in another messy clash with the press — the actor lashed out at a photographer during a night out in New York.
The British star was on his way to a restaurant in the Big Apple on Wednesday when he took offense to a huddle of snappers outside the venue.
As he made his way towards his next nightspot, the star was caught on camera warning the photographers to “back off.”
And the Four Weddings and a Funeral actor was unhappy at their persistence — reportedly kicking one paparazzo in the groin.
The unlucky snapper is heard shouting, “That wasn’t cool. What the f–k is your problem? I was trying to be a nice guy. I was trying to help you find a cab.”
It isn’t the first time Grant has found himself in a sticky situation with photographers — he allegedly threw a carton of baked beans over one London snapper in 2007.
