Battery Report Against Mel Gibson

Posted Jul 30th 2009 7:20AM by TMZ Staff

Someone is at LAPD's Hollywood Division right now filing a battery report against Mel Gibson.

Mel was at a club last night with GF Oksana Grigorieva when a photog tried taking a pic but coudn't get the shot because of security. According to Hollyscoop.com, the photog's friend stepped in and tried to get the shot, but that reportedly irritated Mel to the point he ripped the guy's shirt open.

That's all we know so far.

5. Another a-hole looking for a lawsuit when he should have stayed behind security. Jerks. I'd have done more than rip his shirt open.

6. Never cared for the man or his dopey movies. Hes also a racist in sheeps clothing . He got off from that DUI arrest awhile back , so he now probably thought he could do no wrong . I hope they throw the book at him now, because NO ONE SHOULD EVER PUT THEIR HANDS ON ANOTHER IN ANGER, NO MATTER WHAT THE CIRCUMSTANCES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

8. That poor, poor shirt. How ever will the photog's friend go on?
LOL.

I bet along with the battery report, he's going to say he needs therapy or something. Sue for an undisclosed amount because of the emotional damage he's gone through.

Hmmm, if he does get any money, I think I'm going to have to try a run in with Mel myself......I need a new car ^_^.

9. Why does the court system even waste the tax payers money. The government system is full of paper tigers. Mel won't even have to show up for this. His attorney will make it go away and it will cost the state thousands.

15. I wonder if his pregnant GF was drinking? Maybe that's why he was so pissed.
