Venom Actor Woody Harrelson Punched A Man In Self-Defense
Mumbai, October 8 - "Venom - Let There Be Carnage" actor Woody Harrelson got into a scuffle with a man on Wednesday night and allegedly punched him. ## The incident took place on the rooftop of Washington DC's infamous Watergate Hotel at around 11 p.m. on Wednesday where a man wasn't stopping taking pictures with the 60-year old actor and his daughter, according to NBC4 Washington.## It is reported that Harrelson approached the man and told him to stop taking photos and delete the ones he had already captured. This got him into a verbal argument with the man, who then lunged towards Harrelson to grab his neck, and the actor punched the man in the neck in self-defense.## Police were called to the hotel after the incident happened. A report by police officers then tells how the actor admitted he got into a verbal dispute with the man and he punched him "in his neck in defense of himself". ## Witnesses backed up the 'Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri' star's account of what had happened, and police told NBC Washington their statements suggested the other man had been the aggressor. An investigation is ongoing, but NBC4 notes that Harrelson wasn't charged.## Meanwhile, Woody Harrelson has a long history of getting into trouble with people taking pictures of him and making videos. In 1995, he got into a scuffle with two paparazzi who he claimed had stalked his family during a visit to Martha's Vineyard and was later ordered to pay one of them over $4,800, while the other, who had filmed the incident, was given just $2.## In 2008, he was sued for reportedly attacking and breaking the video camera of a photographer, with the case dismissed two years later after they agreed on a settlement out of court. He was also accused by a paparazzi of assaulting him and damaging his video camera at New York's LaGuardia Airport in 2019, but no charges were filed or further action was taken.## Stay tuned...
