Alec Baldwin assaults and punches a photographer after obtaining his marriage license in 2012. Baldwin alleges the photographer got right in his face, practically hitting Baldwin with his camera. Baldwin said his reaction was justified as to the invasion of personal space. Alec Baldwin has had 3 completely different assaults on photographers over the years. He did so in 1995, this one, and again in 2013, all resulting in him striking or physically manhandling the photographers. He was investigated each time, but all 3 were settled out of court.
