As the couple attempted to leave the parking lot, Benji allegedly ran over a paparazzo's foot, and did not stop.

The allegedly injured photographer drove himself to the hospital and attempted to file a police report over the phone while en route to seek medical attention, the West Hollywood Sheriff's Department told Access. Despite the paparazzo's attempt to get a jump-start on his paper work, the Sheriff's Department said reports cannot be filed over the phone.

    I just seen the video and there was no way Benji could have known that he ran over the guys foot. There was too much confusion, lights and noise. He did tell them to move out of the way so he could go. The paparazzi needs to let celebrities be people too. Just because they choose the career they do, doesn't mean they aren't normal. They deserve to go out and have fun just like

    SM, you are an idiot. The person who should be responsible is the idiot who would not get out of the way. I do not like Paris, but the pap is out of control. They deserve a hurt foot.

    I've seen the video footage of this incident and I must say those paparazzi are definitely way out of line. The couple is gracious enough to let them take their pictures and I see that the car is moving at a slow pace. So if anyone got hit, its their fault. Those dumb vultures.

    BobbyS, don't tell me to shut up! It's my opinion. Paris Hilton is way overrated! What has she done that makes her a celebrity?? Make a sex tape?

    If I was Paris and Benji I would turn it around on the guy, cause technically the papparazzi was keeping their vehicle from moving and keeping them from leaving, I call that an attempted hostage situation.
