Hugh Grant has been arrested and questioned by police after a photographer accused the actor of attacking him with a tub of baked beans.

Photographer Ian Whittaker told the Daily Star that he and Grant, 46, clashed near the home of the "Four Weddings and a Funeral" star.

Whittaker said Grant abused and kicked him on Tuesday before lobbing the beans. The paper printed photos of Grant with a plastic tub of food raised over his head.

Grant's lawyers Schillings said an incident had taken place and was now under investigation.

Only a Brit would attack a man with baked beans. It sounds liek a Monty Python skit. They're just lucky that Hugh wasn't really mad, or he'd have let them have it with his banger!

As a Bostonian, I take a certain amount of perverse pride in his choice of weaponry!

Not to mention his choice of targets. I say, all excessive paparazzi-ing is done at the paparazzo's own risk!
