Hugh Grant cleared for bean-throwing incident

Looks like Hugh Grant is off the hook for throwing baked beans at paparazzi. Britain's Crown Prosecution Service announced yesterday that the Music & Lyrics actor will not be prosecuted for hurling a plastic container of beans or kicking a photographer outside his London home in April. "We have advised the police that there is insufficient evidence to charge Hugh Grant with any offense in relation to an allegation that he kicked a photographer," said a rep for the prosecutor's office. "This is because there were clear discrepancies between the accounts of independent witnesses and those of the photographers involved. In relation to a second allegation involving a takeaway food container, the CPS decided that a prosecution would not be in the public interest."
