Denise Richards-tossed laptops hit women

RICHMOND, British Columbia (AP) -- A spokeswoman for Denise Richards blamed aggressive paparazzi for a run-in that prompted the Hollywood actress to toss a pair of laptops from a balcony, causing minor injuries to two elderly women.

Howard Blank, a spokesman for the River Rock casino resort in the Vancouver suburb, confirmed an incident took place Wednesday evening.

Global TV reported Richards was filming a scene for the movie "Blonde and Blonder" when she allegedly confronted a photographer trying to take her picture. Richards threw the laptop computers off a balcony, hitting two elderly women sitting in the lobby below.

Paramedics were called but the women did not appear to be seriously injured.

"Based on the actions of the paparazzi, they are lucky their laptops were the only things that were thrown off the ledge," Richards' publicist, Nicole Perez, said in Los Angeles on Thursday.

A statement from "Blonde and Blonder" producer Dean Bornstein indicated that a "number of unauthorized persons" got onto the set and began "harassing members of the cast."

"While trying to stop the paparazzi, Denise Richards was involved in an altercation," Bornstein 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."

Richards, 35, has appeared in the movies "Wild Things" and "Starship Troopers."

She has two daughters, Sam 2, and Lola, 1, from her marriage to Charlie Sheen, who stars in the CBS sitcom "Two and a Half Men."
Now in all honesty, I don't have a clue who Denise Richards is (aside from that she was apparently in Startship Troopers and was married to Charlie Sheen), but there's something twistedly amusing about sweet little old ladies being pelted with laptops by retarded celebs....

Old ladies getting slammed by a couple laptops is funny? I thought the part about Denise Richards going psycho was but hurting people, especially the elderly, is wrong. I hope she gets charged and sent to jail. =)

Who the **** has enough money that they can afford to chuck laptops at people? Don’t those, you know, break? (Wait, she’s a Hollywood actress, never mind the “Who has enough money” bit)

Regardless, that’s damn amusing.

It wasn't her laptop. It belonged to the photographer.

Is it sick that I wish the photographer had managed to grab a shot of the flying laptop during its moment of impact with the two old crones?

She might be rich enough to throw laptops at people, but look at it this way: Who the **** is Denise Richards?
