GABOR'S HUSBAND GUILTY OF PAPARAZZO ASSAULT

ZSA ZSA GABOR's husband FREDERIC VON ANHALT has been forced to pay $4,510 (GBP2,255) in compensation for an attack on a photographer.
In his complaint, Dirk Smeten claimed the 62-year-old angrily approached him in Beverly Hills, California in May 2005.
Smeten was left him with a cut lip and face, swelling, pain, high blood pressure, headaches and stress symptoms after attempting to photograph Von Anhalt.
According to the complaint filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, "Plaintiff thought he was going to be killed by defendant,"
Von Anhalt says he attempted to settle the case by offering Smeten $20,000 (GBP10,000). But Smeten was seeking $137,000 (GBP68,500) in damages.
On Friday (18April08), the judge awarded Smeten $4,510.
Von Anhalt says, "I knew I had to pay something. His lip was bleeding. The bleeding lip was probably when I pushed the camera in his face."
