LOS ANGELES (AFP) - George Clooney has spoken out against the tactics of paparazzi "bounty-hunters," accusing them of risking the safety of innocent bystanders in their pursuit of celebrity photos.

In an interview to be screened by US television show "Entertainment Tonight" on Tuesday, Clooney said he sympathized with stars such as Britney Spears, citing a case where the singer ran a red-light while trailed by photographers.
"You look at the footage of Britney running the red light -- there's eight guys with cameras at night in the middle of the street. There are no rules now," the "Ocean's 13" and "Syriana" star told an interviewer.
"It's getting to a point where people that are not involved are getting hurt."
Clooney, 46, revealed he had been involved in a near-collision with paparazzi earlier this month while riding a motorcycle in Los Angeles.
"What they're doing is illegal, it's high-speed chases and they're competing with each other," he said.
"They're not trying to catch me doing something stupid; they're trying to create me doing something stupid. You don't get to break all these laws and then say, 'I'm just doing my job.'
"The guys that commit all these crimes are rewarded for it. It creates bounty hunters in a way."
