The Great SATAN of movies was attacked... News are Contradictory

Michael Bay was attacked during Bayformers 4 Filming.

the American version of the news  says:



two brothers surnamed Mak, aged 27 and 28, approached Bay on the set of the new "Transformers" film and — for reasons unknown at the time of the reporting — demanded a payment of HK$100,000 ($12,900). The elder Mak then allegedly attacked Bay and then three police officers who tried to intervene. Both brothers were taken into custody, along with a third man surnamed Chan, and the three cops were treated at a local hospital for minor injuries.
Bay himself apparently suffered some minor injuries to the right side of his face but declined to seek treatment. Filming of the giant alien robots continued shortly after the incident.

Then Paramount says:

Contrary to several erroneous news reports made today, Bay did not get hurt in a fight on set. The production company did have a bizarre encounter with a man (allegedly under the influence of a narcotic substance) who was wielding an air conditioning unit as a weapon. The man, who had earlier accosted several other crew members, rushed onto the set in Quarry Bay and swung the air conditioning unit directly at Bay's head. The director ducked and wrested the air conditioner from his attacker, preventing what could have been a serious accident. The company's security team quickly stepped in and subdued the assault. The police, who also scuffled with the assailant and two of his companions, ultimately arrested the three men. No one on the cast or crew was injured and the production immediately resumed filming without further incident.

Meanwhile, our TARDIS  Blue British Comrades across the pond sing a different story:


It said that the men could have missed out on disturbance fees which the film crew paid to shop and business owners whose businesses were likely to be affected during filming.
The two men approached Mr Bay on the set during filming, a police spokeswoman told Reuters.
One of them demanded payment of HK$100,000 ($12,900; £8,030).
As the discussion continued, the man assaulted Mr Bay and also attacked three police officers who tried to intervene, police say.
What the Hell, man!? Paramount's version sounds so freaking racist, it's not funny. I think If I was a gambling man, I'd say that the BBC version sounds more plausible. The whole added thing in parenthesis makes the racism more noticeable... Also, Wielding an Air Conditioner as a Weapon?
Is this something straight out of some weird Martial Arts Movie?

It may seem heartless, but the troll in me is sad that Bay didn't get his ass kicked. The moral side of me would say that is wrong. Newsflash: It IS FREAKING WRONG!! Even if it is Michael Bay...
Now with that pseudo-disclaimer out of the way, I kinda want to see a movie of the Paramount version...



Cause this is way better Transformers movie than the overly expensive crappy movies that Michael Bay has made... Whose only good thing is that they have the REAL OPTIMUS PRIME voicing Optimus Prime...
