The man filed a battery report with LAPD , claiming  that Gibson –who was with his  new love Oksana Gregorieva  at the time – grabbed him and ripped his t-shirt when he tried to take a picture of the Oscar winning director/actor.

The shutterbug was put up to taking the photo by a reporter who attempted the same feat, but was scolded by VIP security.

The relentless journo asked her friend to try the same, but he allegedly caught Mel's wrath. 

The upset partygoer departed the scene to file a battery report with police, while Gibson left the club shortly after. Hollyscoop.com was the first to break the news of the incident.

Gibson completed probation in February 2008, stemming from his infamous Malibu, Ca. DUI incident in 2006.

Playhouse is a Vegas style venue headed up by New York nightlife impresario Rob Vinokur.
