Matthew McConaughey was at the center of what became a violent beach brawl after a mass of surfers came to his defense on Sunday and attacked a group of photographers following the actor.

A group of approximately twelve photographers were taking snaps of the Sahara star enjoying the surf on a Malibu, California beach when a group of disgruntled surfers launched an all-out attack, allegedly leaving one paparazzo with a broken nose after being struck in the face, as shown in a video posted by website TMZ.com.

Another photographer was allegedly thrown into a mound of rocks by the group of angry surfers, leaving his camera equipment damaged.

Police have confirmed a battery report has been filed by one photographer – though no arrests have been made, according to the website.

McConaughey, an avid surfer, was not involved in the incident.
