Another day, another story about Alec Baldwin losing his rag and showing his temper by going crazy on a photographer. You know the drill now: photographer tries to take photo of Alec, wife Hilaria and his kid, Alec goes mental, the cops are called, yada yada. From TMZ: Alec Baldwin got very angry this morning in the Hamptons, and there was an immediate show of force from the local police department. In the video, shot in East Hampton … Alec is on a sidewalk talking to two police officers. His voice is raised, but it’s hard to make out why he’s pissed. Whatever it was … it was serious enough that THREE other patrol cars quickly rolled up with their sirens blaring. Toward the end of the clip. you can hear Alec yell, “I want this man arrested!” It’s unclear what got Baldwin so heated, or who he wanted tossed in jail. A close friend of the Baldwins tells TMZ … Alec was in the park with his wife Hilaria and their baby when a paparazzo approached them. According to the friend, Baldwin has some history with the photog — he’s allegedly called Hilaria a bitch and a whore in the past — which is why Alec immediately got so angry. A cop who was nearby tried to calm things down, but felt he needed backup … it was Alec Baldwin, after all. We’re told one of the responding officers successfully cooled down the situation — and even got Alec and the photog to shake hands before they walked away! Look, I get that paparazzi are annoying as shit and are always in your business. It’s awful and it’s intrusive and it sucks. However, you chose to be famous. There’s zero excuse for a photographer to invade on your personal space or to verbally assault you or your loved ones – I’m not excusing that. However, this should be old hat to Alec now and he needs to get his temper together.
