Vehicle contained teen he claims was following him
Thursday, 2 July 2009
Cristiano Ronaldo admits lashing out at the car of a paparazzo, claiming a 17-year-old girl inside was pursuing him.
The Real Madrid star was driving to an Elton John concert in Portugal with his mum and sisters when the incident happened on Sunday night.
'Because of his mother's despair, Cristiano Ronaldo finally reacted impulsively, kicking the car of the individual concerned and his travelling companion,’ reads a statement from his management.
Cristiano, 24, added: 'This persecution caused my mother to be so disturbed and upset that I had to stop my car to try to convince them to leave us in peace.
‘I try to swallow it and remain indifferent. But when my mother is involved, then I'm sorry but I don't let anyone, I repeat anyone, harass her.
‘I regret what I did, but I can't promise that I would not react in the same way again in the same circumstances.’
It’s claimed the teen was taken to hospital where she was treated for cuts on her arm before reporting the incident to officers.
A police spokesperson has refused to comment.
