City prosecutors say the Scottish-born actor had a run-in with a photographer on Oct. 7 after leaving a premiere party for the film "RocknRolla."

Butler's manager, Alan Siegel, says /*Butler*/ was forced to have his driver stop the car after the photographer repeatedly sped through red lights and almost struck two pedestrians.
