REPORT: ROBERT PATTINSON HIT BY TAXICAB

Amid a New York City mob of frenzied fans, Rob Pattinson collided with a taxi on the street outside the Strand bookstore downtown Thursday, according to reports.
The Twilight actor, in Manhattan filming Remember Me, apparently attempted to run across the street to escape a hoard of fans when he was clipped on his hip by a moving cab, whose driver slammed his breaks upon impact.
Pattinson, 23, did not appear to be injured and was able to walk away from the incident. Production sources on the Remember Me set claim that Pattinson regularly attracts mobs of fans throughout the city wherever they're filming. "It's been nonstop busy all day with people trying to get a glimpse of him, and the crowd goes nuts when they do see him," a set source told PEOPLE Tuesday.
As a result, the actor has hired his own security in addition to the bodyguards provided by Summit Entertainment, according to the source, who adds that the heartthrob maintains a positive mentality about his fan base.
"I think he appreciates it. He's not one to make a big deal about it. He's a chill guy and quiet so far," the source says. "I think he finds it a little weird that people are standing outside all day to get a glimpse of him, but grateful."
Neither Summit Entertainment nor a rep for Pattinson was immediately available for comment.
