Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Maleficent premiere in Los Angeles.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie remained all smiles for the camera despite the ‘attack’.

Poor Brad Pitt! He was in attendance at the Los Angeles premiere of Angelina Jolie’s new film, MALEFICENT when a man was arrested for allegedly punching Brad Pitt in the face.

The accused man is Ukrainian reporter Vitalii Sediuk, who has been known for pulling a few ill-advised pranks in recent months and has caused havoc at events.  

According to reports, he jumped over the barricade and made physical contact with the star.  Rumours are rife of a scuffle and a few punches thrown, but what is definite, is that the 25-year-old man was forced to the floor by bodyguards before being led away by the police following the incident.   

A police spokesman said Mr Sediuk was held in custody on Wednesday night pending $20,000 (£12,000) bail.

Thankfully, Brad Pitt was not injured or too fazed by the incident and continued to sign autographs for the fans.  Awwww.

Some of his misdemeanours include looking up actress America Ferrera’s dress at the Cannes Film Festival whilst posing with Kit Harrington and Cate Blanchett, before being dragged away by security.
