He must have some of that vampire blood in him, because Twilight heartthrob Rob Pattinson was barely bruised when he was hit by a cab earlier today. The actor was running away from his screaming legions of fans, Radar reports, when he got "clipped by a cab around noon in front of the Strand Bookstore on Broadway and 12th Street." He's in town shooting scenes for his new movie, Remember Me, and as he departed the shop in the pouring rain he was rushed across the street to his trailer. Reportedly the cab only grazed him, and the site reports that the impact was to the hip. "He stood there for a moment looking stunned" (sounds familiar), and once his bodyguard confirmed he was alright, he screamed at the fans: "You see what you did, you almost killed him!" Now the 23-year old just needs to survive 4 more weeks of shooting on the mean streets of New York.

It's the same media that NEVER mentioned Muslims' hatred of Israel as a possible motive for 9/11.

Why is Pussy yelling at his teenager fans when it was the turban guy that hit him. wth?
Is that really necessary?
my bad.
wow. gothamist's first split personality confirmed.
we all know you are valeriob.
I replied to stalker, I'm not him.
No, you accidentally signed in to your other username and posted by mistake.
Seeing that there is no delete button for comments, you have evil plot has been spoiled!
nice try, but fail. however, i am your mom's secret hubby.
Hotstepper/Valeriob, can't you stop the "your mama" insults?
Wait, what?
Was he ticketed for jaywalking? Didn't his fan teach him to walk both ways before crossing? Not the sharpest tool in the shed,
Wow. I hope its on the DVD extras.
I hope it's on the director's extended cut...on two disc.
With commentary from Russel Crow.
Fuck it. Just put it on Blu-ray, 1080p with Dolby Digital Sound Sound enhancing his pussy ass scream and I'll Netflix it.
so he just runs out into the street without looking..
Ahhhh dammit! We were so close...
I don't believe he was running from fans for a second.
You mean Monkey's style? Or the Beatles in Help?
Are tehere really that many dorks in NY now that they're chasing this guy down?? Wow, might be time to move.
Excuse me, I'm sure that suburban teenage girls know how to take a train by now!
What else are you going to do in some small town of NJ or CT during the summer?
You mean besides eating cupcakes that were denied to them during the school year by their yenta anorexic moms.
Running from fans? Puhleeze. Who is he, George Harrison in 1963? Squinty troglodite.
Why is everyone hating on RP? I'm not fan, but a bunch of idiotic tweens chased him onto traffic. What's wrong with people?!?
this was such an excellent point that you made it twice with two different accounts
i think its three. all felix, all "special".
Some of Gothamist readers are so obtuse. I am not the cat and/or the aol but the stalker.
I guess the talented guy died over the Atlantic and this guy skates. WTF, Karma?
From what I've seen of Twilight fans, I didn't think any of them could run.

That is amazing.
HA HA HA
NuttyMadam3575 has over 3600 subs?????
All i did was come on here to write how I wish the cab would have hit him going 40, not cool guys.
Two teenage girls from Paramus, New Jersey screaming at the $1 bargain bin outside the Strand after they found the trash novel they wanted, hardly qualifies for "screaming legions of fans."
I thought they were from Ramsey, the way they were clutching each other's hair.
Judging from a clip that was on TMZ, there was quite an uproar on Monday(?). It was like the Jonas Bros. were in town.
The Jonas Bros.? Now you are talking an extremely talented group. What do these PR people do, throw a handful of free concert tickets up in the air and video these kids scrambling to get them as they cut to a close up of the alleged object of their frenzy?
Now if you want to talk about talent, how about David Cassidy? BTW what is he doing today?
This guy isn't even good looking. He looks like a reject from a Sean Penn wannabee contest. And Sean Penn isn't even good looking to begin with.
I'm gonna rest easy tonight knowing he is ok.
Wow, what the heck is wrong with you people? So much hatred. Honestly, I'm sorry if it makes you guys feel sad when your woman calls out Robert's name during love-making, but is it really his fault if he's sexier than you? Don't be jealous, betches. You know he's hot.
