Kim Kardashian tackled by prankster at Paris Fashion Week

PARIS, Sept. 25 (UPI) -- UPDATE: The person who tackled Kardashian was none other than Vitalii Sediuk, according to TMZ. The notorious Ukranian prankster is responsible for similar attacks on Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio and Will Smith.

Kim Kardashian was tackled at Paris Fashion Week on Thursday.

The 33-year-old reality star, husband Kanye West and mother Kris Jenner were making their way into the Balmain show when a person in the crowd grabbed onto Kardashian's legs and nearly pulled her to the ground. Security immediately intervened, but the star was heard to yell "Stop it!" and "Help!" before the assailant was apprehended.

Kardashian and her family attended the event to see half-sister Kendall walk in the Balmain show. The 18-year-old burgeoning model walked for Fendi, Bottega Veneta and Dolce & Gabbana at Milan Fashion Week last week, and for Tommy Hilfiger and Diane Von Furstenberg at New York Fashion Week earlier this month.
