Paris Hilton's black Cadillac Escalade hit by a photographer

Paris Hilton's black Cadillac Escalade was hit by a photographer trying to get a shot of the heiress, TMZ reports.

Hilton was riding in the back seat as her car pulled into the alley behind Kitson.

Paris' driver was parked at the time of the accident. He explains that a black Mercedes, driven by a photographer, pulled in front of Hilton's car to get a good shot of Paris heading into Kitson.

The driver tells TMZ, "The car is backing up into me, in reverse, as my client is getting out of the car. Basically it was either me risking hurting my client, which I wasn't willing to do, of course, or taking the hit. So we took the hit."
