Pop star Justin Bieber has accidentally hit a photographer with his pickup truck after leaving a service with the Hillsong Church group in Los Angeles, police say.
The 23-year-old was seen trying to help the man to his feet after he fell to the ground beside the vehicle outside theSaban Theatre, the Daily Mail reports.
Pictures show the 57-year-old paparazzo lying on the ground and clutching his leg while the singer talks with police and bystanders.
The incident occurred after the singer was leaving the church service.
According to abc7, Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian were also at the service but were not involved in the collision.
The singer immediately stopped his truck and climbed out of the cab, walking around the front to find the photographer lying on the ground. He asked him if he was okay or if he was injured.
The man was clutching his leg and crying out in pain, although the extent of his injuries was not immediately apparent.
His camera equipment and baseball cap lay scattered on the ground beside him, while one shoe had partially come off.
The photographer told Bieber that he was fine and joked with the singer that something was bound to happen at some point.
Whatever his injuries, they didn't appear to be life-threatening as his fellow paparazzi simply stood around snapping more pictures.
As Bieber spoke to the man, he didn't appear to look too concerned as his offer for a hand up went ignored.
The singer stood aside with his hands in his pockets, as the medics arrived to assess the situation.
Beverly Hills Police arrived shortly afterwards, as Bieber was seen explaining what had happened to two officers.
One ambulance, a fire truck and 10 police cars arrived and Bieber spoke to authorities before going inside the church.
The photographer, meanwhile, was taken to hospital with minor injuries.
Hillsong pastor Carl Lentz, who is a close friend of Bieber's, also stopped by the scene to make sure everything was okay.
The collision comes just days after the star cancelled the final 14 shows of his Purpose World Tour.
