Gerard Butler is reportedly being investigated by the LAPD after he punched a paparazzi in the face.

TMZ reports that after leaving the Crown Bar at 2 a.m., Butler's limo was followed by a photographer. Witnesses have come forward to say that the photographer was trailing Butler for hours recklessly, almost hitting pedestrians.

After Butler got out of his limo and hit the photographer, the photographer continued to follow him for over an hour before heading to the hospital. The paparazzi has filed a police report and TMZ reports, has also spoken with a laywer (surprise, surprise). The LAPD have confirmed they plan to interview Butler.
