Paris and Benji Hit and Run

High-profile celebrity couple, Paris Hilton and Benji Madden, have been accused of allegedly driving over the foot of a paparrazi as they left a club in West Hollywood on Thursday night, before driving away.

Photographer Glen Gurniak has filed papers with the Los Angele's Sheriff's Department and told paparazzi agency Splash News Online that, "There were too many people that side of the car so he swung the wheels in my direction on the other side of the car and got my foot trapped under the wheel."

"I yelled at him: 'Dude, you've pinched my foot under the wheel, don't drive, don't drive,'" the pap said. "He turned and looked at me out of the window and then just drove. I fell to the floor as the car stopped and was just laying on the floor as everyone was screaming at him that he'd run me over."

The incident was captured on video by TMZ.com where a loud scream can be heard as the couple drives away.

Steve Witmore, a spokesman for the L.A. Sheriff's Department told Usmagazine.com that, "The incident is currently under investigation."

Lohan Sued By Photographer

lindsay lohan gets suedNew York photographer Giovanni Arnold has sued Lohan and her mom Dina Thursday in New York State Supreme Court, apparently still steaming from their allegedly literal run-in on Mar. 13 outside of a Manhattan hotel.

The paparazzo alleges that the ladies were "negligent, careless and reckless" when Lohan hit him with her BMW while motoring away from him and his fellow shutterbugs after they had trailed her to the Hotel Gansevort in Soho from the nighttime hotspot Butter.

According to Arnold's complaint, the Mean Girls star's actions left him with "sustained severe and permanent personal injuries" that resulted in economic losses. Arnold is seeking unspecified damages to compensate for his recently acquired inability to chase after celebs. Dina Lohan owns the Beemer, hence her inclusion in the lawsuit.

Lohan, 20, told the New York Post in March that, while trying to drive her way through the usual gaggle of paparazzi, an overzealous member of the pack jumped on the hood of her car and Arnold, who was standing nearby, was accidentally knocked down in the process.

Witness accounts had Lohan jumping out of the car to check on him and then talking briefly to a police officer, who allowed her to leave the scene—which she did, in her bodyguard's SUV. She returned to the hotel about an hour later.

Arnold's agency told the Post that he was treated for a bruised knee at a nearby hospital.

It just so happens that, during an appearance on Late Night with David Letterman Wednesday, Lohan's interview featured a series of true-or-false questions that included one about whether she once drove over a paparazzo's foot.

"I should have," Lohan joked, denying that she actually did. "The guy completely faked it. Amazing."

Lohan has been on the publicity trail all week promoting her latest film, Georgia Rule, which opens today. Last night, she put in an appearance on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, telling the host that she and her friends were planning a big Las Vegas shindig for her 21st birthday next month, and today she helped whip up some profiteroles on The Martha Stewart Show.
