娱乐英语资讯：Britney Spears not to be charged for hit-run accident

BEIJING, June 17 (Xinhuanet) -- Los Angeles prosecutors said they will not file charges against pop star Britney Spears over a photographer's claim she allegedly ran over his foot as she backed up her car in a crush of paparazzi. The photographer, who was not identified in the report, filed a criminal complaint against Spears in early May, nearly six months after the alleged incident.

Prosecutors said on Monday the only way the paparazzo's foot could have been where the video showed it to be was if he himself had put it there.

Joseph Shidler, deputy district attorney, said in a report that Spears' car was surrounded by photographers, and that a voice on the video told her to back up.

Evidence doesn't prove that Spears left the scene of the accident, as the paparazzo claimed in his police report.

"We have no evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the suspect was aware that the victim's foot had been struck by the car," Shidler wrote. "There was much commotion and noise at the time and there is no proof that the suspect was aware of what had happened."

Prosecutors said the video does not show the photographer's foot being run over. Shidler added that, "the only way the victim's foot could have been where the video indicates it to be was by the victim placing it in that location."

Currently, the 26-year-old pop star's father has temporary control of her finances. He recently filed for payments relating to his conservatorship arrangement. A hearing is scheduled for Tuesday morning in Los Angeles.
