Short-tempered actor Alec Baldwin was involved in yet another scuffle with paparazzi Tuesday, just days after welcoming daughter Carmen Gabriela with wife Hilaria Thomas.
Baldwin and Thomas were spotted walking in the Greenwich Village street in New York when the 30 Rock actor noticed paparazzi following them, New York Daily News reports. Baldwin allegedly turned and attacked Paul Adao, a veteran freelance photographer.
In the photos, Baldwin is seen pinning Adao against the car in front of several witnesses.
“Alec didn’t want them taking any more pictures, so he went over and confronted him,” Erick Nguyen, manager of the Saigon Market, explained of the altercation. “They were jawing. Baldwin grabbed him and threw him against the car.”
Sources tell TMZ that Adao was the aggressor, while he maintains that he was asking Baldwin normal questions with no intentions to provoke a fight.
A friend of Baldwin reacted to the incident telling TMZ, "What kind of sick twisted psychopath chases a woman who just got out of the hospital from having a baby into a tea store?"
According to the report, the NYPD was called and neither party wanted to file charges.
