"I had a little mishap," Pitt, told reporters of his Oct. 24 run-in with a paparazzo's car. "No injuries, except my ego. I was trying to get away from some paparazzi and instead gave them a good story."

As photo agency X17 first reported, the 45 year-old actor — wearing a helmet — fell off his motorcycle after being cut off by a photographer pursuing him. After exchanging heated words with the paparazzo, an uninjured Pitt left the brand-new bike — it had been delivered to his home days before –to be driven away in his assistant's car.
