Chris Martin reportedly hit a photographer with his Jeep. The father of two went to a restaurant in Santa Monica, Giorgio Baldi, with his ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow and their two children, Apple and Moses, when the alleged incident happened. While leaving the restaurant, a photographer ran to Chris' car and was allegedly struck by his Jeep. An ambulance was then called and the photographer was rushed to hospital.
According to TMZ, which has pictures from the scene, the entire story seems suspicious. The site wrote, "Here is the weird thing. The photog who took pics of the accident was standing across the street. It's unclear why the cameraman would be so far away, because there was a clear shot of the family from the restaurant side...right on the sidewalk. In fact, three other photogs were perched right there."
TMZ added "We've never seen a photog take pic from across that street, so as we said, it's weird he's the one who got shot of the accident. Also he and the guy who allegedly got hit have worked together."
The site also noted that when the injured photographer was wheeled away by the officer, he looked directly at the other photographer who snapped pics of the incident.
Until now, Chris has not yet commented in public regarding to the incident. Along with Gwyneth, Chris is frequent paparazzi target. They often follow the Coldplay vocalist during his dates with Jennifer Lawrence, his current girlfriend.
