Mel Gibson accused of pushing female photographer
Oscar-winning actor Mel Gibson has been accused of pushing a female photographer in Sydney.
The Daily Telegraph's Kristi Miller told Australian media she was pushed and verbally abused while taking pictures of Gibson and his girlfriend.
She alleges Gibson's tirade ended when his partner, 24-year-old US equestrian vaulter Rosalind Ross, intervened.
"I thought he was going to punch me in the face," Ms Miller said. "He was spitting in my face as he was yelling."
Police confirmed they are investigating reports a female photographer was pushed outside a cinema on Sunday night.
