Denise Richards damages paparazzi laptops

Denise Richards was so incensed by photographers invading her film set that she threw their laptops over a hotel balcony - injuring two elderly women as a result.

The incident occurred on the Vancouver set of Richards' latest cinematic venture Blonde and Blonder. Dean Bornstein - the film's producer - explained the circumstances of the incident to the Associated Press.

"While trying to stop the paparazzi, Denise Richards was involved in an altercation," he said. "To protect her safety she instinctively knocked the paparazzo's laptops off a ledge."

"Royal Canadian Mounted Police were called to the scene as a precaution and the case was soon closed. No charges were filed against Ms Richards," added Bornstein.

Last year 35-year-old Richards, who shot to fame in Starship Troopers and Wild Things, divorced actor Charlie Sheen after a three year marriage.
