Edward Norton in fight with New York photographer

FIGHT Club star Edward Norton had an altercation with an amateur photographer in New York this week - and sent the paparazzo to hospital.

The New York Post reported Norton, 43, was walking along the street on Tuesday when he was approached by a man brandishing his phone camera.

"I got a quick question: 'People say you look like me. Is that true?'", asked snapper Alain Becerra-Calderon.

Norton reportedly replied, "Why are you stalking me?" before shoving the camera away.

The photographer, who makes videos on a YouTube channel, then told police Norton had attacked him. He went to hospital, where a doctor said he suffered a "tissue contusion" on his middle finger.

The NYPD is investigating Norton for "harassment," a source said.

Mr Becerra-Calderon said the exchange was "very, very scary" and the actor "needs to lea to control his temper... I asked if I could ask a question, and he grabbed my phone." He said his finger was "bruised" and, "the hospital even had to put a bandage on it."
