Train Wrecks
Dillon Pulls a Dourdan

Posted Jul 23rd 2007 5:00PM by TMZ Staff

Matt Dillon isn't familar with how TMZ treats people who like to hit.

Without saying a solitary word, the other Dillon brother walked right up to a TMZ photog in New York this weekend and smacked the s**t out of his camera. Not cool, dude! After the sneak attack, the not-so-tough guy walked off in a huff -- only to stop a few seconds later to stare down our shooter.


What's he so pissed about? It was the public that had to endure "You, Me and Dupree"!

In a statement to TMZ, Dillon's rep claims "You don't show the part of the footage where the photographer kept hassling him. He wouldn't have pushed the camera away if he hadn't."

For the record, that footage doesn't exist as our photog shot every frame of footage from the other side of the street -- until Dillon approached him.

2. I don't know if this is true or not. But I wish people could stop being so mean to the Paps.

3. Anyways as Paris said on Larry King last month: "Paps are out trying to make a living and I don't like how people treat them."

I wish celebrities could stop abusing them just because they're doing the only thing they can to make money. It's impossible to find a minimal wage job out west because illegal immigrants (including border-hoppers) steal jobs out there.

7. tmz provoking actors again...only this time it's on a caucasian.

dillon's a cool guy wid a cool head...so how much did tmz pay the photog to provoke him? like the whiney-b!tch photog who provoked gary dourdan of csi fame, instead of goin' to the nearest cop station to make a report they don't cuz they know they'd get their azz's thrown in jail for stalkin' 'n more.

again, i won't be watching the fake news on the upcoming tmz show...y don't y'all join me in "sitting this one (lousy tv show) out".
