Another source questioned that version of events, suggesting it was the snapper who was the agressor.
"The photographer even continued to harass Hilaria after the incident and forced her into a nearby store to avoid him," the source said.
Regardless, this isn’t the first time the 30 Rock star has been involved a fight with the paparazzi; in the summer of 2012 he was in an altercation with a photographer who questioned him about a lawsuit regarding his wife.
"A 'photographer' almost hit me in the face with his camera this morning. #allpaparazzishouldbewaterboarded," he tweeted at the time.
