Movie bosses have denied reports Robert Pattinson was running away from fans when he was hit by a taxi, insisting the claims are "exaggerated".
The Twilight star was mobbed by fans in New York on Thursday, while he was shooting new film Remember Me in the city.
Internet gossips claimed as Pattinson attempted to escape the swarm of teenage girls, he ran across a road in downtown Manhattan and was clipped on the hip by a yellow cab.
According to RadarOnline.com, a bodyguard checked the 23-year-old for injuries before screaming at fans, "You see what you did, you almost killed him!"
But a spokesperson for the movie's production company has downplayed the reports, and says filming is carrying on as normal after the drama.
Vivian Mayer tells the New York Daily News, "The reports are exaggerated. It was not caused by his fans. Production continues."
