Kim Kardashian 'not attacked' in Los Angeles

April 3 (UPI) -- Reality-television star Kim Kardashian said she was not attacked outside Mr. Chow in Los Angeles on Sunday evening.

E! News reported a passerby bumped into Kardashian on the street, prompting Kardashian and a friend to look surprised and uncomfortable in photos. A bodyguard quickly rushed to their aid and prevented the situation from escalating.

"So @JonathanCheban just called me & asked if I was ok & read online I was attacked outside of Mr. Chow. Totally not true! Such weird rumors," Kardashian tweeted after the incident.

"A random guy walks near me & almost bumped into me but he hit the parking meter. Not attacked me. Hope he's ok!" she added.
