Nicole Kidman pressing charges against photographer who knocked her down on New York street

Semi-Exclusive... 51205844 As Nicole Kidman walked back into her New York hotel after attending the Calvin Klein Fashion Show on September 12, 2013, she was knocked to the ground by an overly eager photographer on a bicycle, losing her heels in the process. The photog was racing on his bike to get to the hotel and shoot pics of her arrival there but lost control in the process, swerving into Kidman, causing both of them to fall. Pictures capture the tense moments after the accident, where assistants lifted Kidman to her feet and helped her as she put her heels back before she was quickly ushered inside. The embarrassed photog lay stunned on the ground as hotel staff tried to assess the awkward situation.

According to a witness for TMZ, Wu appeared to hit the brakes but didn't stop in time. A photographer at the scene told the gossip site that Kidman told Wu she wanted to press charges.


Another observer told Us Weekly that Kidman appeared more shaken than injured.

"She looked hurt, but there wasn't any blood," the witness said. "She put her shoes back on and ran into the Carlyle."

TMZ reports that cops will write Wu a ticket for illegally riding his bicycle on the sidewalk but will not arrest him for anything more serious.
