Report: Angelina’s Driver Hits Biker In India

PUNE, INDIA (October 12, 2006) — Angelina Jolie has been receiving a lot of attention for her global efforts.

But on Wednesday, Jolie found herself getting attention for the wrong reasons in India, as her driver hit a man on a motorbike.

Mittal Rawat, 19, was riding his motorbike on the busy road when he was hit by Jolie’s car.

Rawat said the accident happened when Jolie’s car was trying to avoid a pack of photographers.

A police investigator confirmed the teen was hit by Jolie’s car.

Jolie and Brad Pitt are in Pune, India shooting the Daniel Pearl biopic “A Mighty Heart,” about the U.S. journalist who was kidnapped and murdered in Pakistan.

Jolie plays Pearl’s widow, Mariane, and Pitt is producing.

The couple donated $100,000 to the Daniel Pearl Foundation on Tuesday, on what would have been the journalist’s 43rd birthday.
