NEW YORK (AP) -

A New York City news photographer says he was punched by Alec Baldwin outside a marriage license bureau in Manhattan.

The Daily News reports that Marcus Santos was snapping images of the "30 Rock" star with his fiance Hilaria Thomas Tuesday morning. Santos told the paper that Baldwin grabbed a second news photographer, then started shoving Santos and hit him in the chin. He then walked away. 

A photo provided to MyFoxNY.com by the newspaper appears to show Baldwin shoving the photographer.

No police report has been filed.

A message sent to Baldwin's publicist wasn't immediately returned Tuesday.

A Twitter message on Baldwin's feed read: "A `photographer' almost hit me in the face with his camera this morning. "#allpaparazzishouldbewaterboarded."
