Brian Austin Green has been accused of assaulting a photographer.

The former Beverly Hills 90210 actor and his wife Megan Fox were photographed by paparazzo Delbert Shaw while holidaying at the Four Seasons Resort in Hawaii last December and, according to gossip website TMZ, he alleges they were so incensed that Brian punched him after Megan egged him on.

The lawsuit Mr. Shaw filed at Los Angeles County Superior Court yesterday says that after seeing him taking pictures Megan yelled, "Are you going to let him get away with that?" He claims Brian then began pummeling him, causing severe injuries before throwing his iPhone into the sea. Mr. Shaw is suing for unspecified damages.
