Justin Bieber reportedly hit a photographer with his car as he attempted to leave church in Beverly Hills.

The pop superstar was filmed inadvertently hitting the paparazzo with the right-side tyre of his Dodge Ram pick-up truck outside the Saban Theater on Wednesday evening.

Footage on US celebrity news site TMZ shows Bieber, 23, kneeling down and speaking to the injured man following the incident at around 9.30pm LA time.

He reportedly spent around 10 minutes with the man before leaving the scene.

Lt Scott Dowling of Beverly Hills Police told Los Angeles Daily News the photographer was taken to hospital with injuries that were non-life threatening.

He added: β€œThe driver of the vehicle completed the investigation on scene and was released.”

A representative for Bieber has been contacted.
