A representative for Summit Entertainment, the studio producing 's upcoming film "," has confirmed that the actor is okay amidst mounting reports of him being hit by a taxi while filming the flick in New York City. "Rob Pattinson is fine," the representative says in a statement.

Not releasing further details concerning the much-talked incident, the representative claims reports on the matter "are exaggerated." And the representative goes on confirming "it was not caused by fans."

On Thursday, June 18, Radar Online ran an exclusive report that Robert Pattinson was hit by a cab while he was escaping a throng of hysterical female fans on the set of "Remember Me" in Manhattan. It was said that the heartthrob was making his way out of the Strand Bookstore on Broadway and 12th Street, where he's been filming a scene for "Remember Me," when a group of fans began to hound him. 5 security guards tried to rush him to his trailer, but failed.

Trying to escape the frenzy, Robert then ran across the busy street. It was when he was doing so that a taxi "grazed" him. "It appeared as if the cab hit Rob in the hip. He stood there for a moment looking stunned. The bodyguard next to him checked if he was okay and then screamed at the fans: 'You see what you did, you almost killed him!' " Radar Online reported.

Nevertheless, the site didn't provide a single video or photograph of the reported incident. Yet, Robert was claimed escaping any injury.

Who knows what to believe and from which source is reliable. If ya'll would leave him alone for 5 minutes maybe the crazed fans would calm down a tad.
