Rancho Palos Verdes (California), March 20 (AP): Keanu Reeves was behind the wheel of a Porsche that allegedly grazed a photographer standing in the path of the sports car, investigators said.

The photographer fell to the ground and paramedics were called after Reeves’s car allegedly struck the man at 7.30 pm yesterday, said deputy Ed Hernandez of the Los Angeles police department. Reeves, 42, was not hurt.

“He grazed a paparazzi standing in front of his Porsche and the man fell to the ground,” Hernandez said. It was not known how fast the Porsche was travelling at the time.

Reeves was leaving a parking space in the Avenida Tranquila residential area about 48 km south of downtown Los Angeles, he said. The photographer, whose name was not released, was taken to a local hospital for treatment of unknown injuries, Hernandez said. The police was investigating the incident.

Reeves’s film credits include Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, My Own Private Idaho, Speed, Johnny Mnemonic and The Matrix.
