HOLLYWOOD - Actress Reese Witherspoon is disappointed because a group ofpaparazzi who "besieged" her in April, will not face criminal charges of
false imprisonment.
The Legally Blonde beauty, 29, told Los Angeles police photographers swarmed
around her car as she left the gym and attempted to force her off the road. She
also alleged the snappers surrounded her as she attempted to enter the West Los
Angeles gated community where she lives with husband Ryan Phillippe and their
two children Ava and Deacon.
In their defense, the photographers claimed they approached the actress
outside the Brentwood gym, simply to inform her her vehicle had suffered minor
damage from one of their colleagues.
Los Angeles Police Department Detective Jeff Dunn says, "I have no
doubt Ms. Witherspoon was besieged by the paparazzi that day. But through
witnesses and videotapes, we weren't able to corroborate the incident Ms.
Witherspoon described."
In June, fellow Hollywood star Lindsay Lohan was left with minor
injuries after photographer Galo Ramirez allegedly drove into her car on
purpose. Ramirez was subsequently arrested on suspicion of assault with a
deadly weapon. The case in pending.
