Kim Kardashian was attacked and almost knocked to the ground in an alarming assault during a Paris Fashion Week event.

TMZ reports that when Kim, Kanye and Kris Jenner arrived at a Fashion Show today,  Thursday, several hundreds of people, including a gaggle of photo correspondents, were squeezed in to watch the celebrities  arrive. As Kim got out of the car, a guy lunged at her, tackled her legs and tried to pull her to the ground. Fortunately, security jumped in time, subdued the guy and quickly escorted Kim and Kris into the building.

The attacker was later identified as Vitalii Sediuk, a Ukrainian prankster who was said to have done same to Leo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt and Will Smith.
He was in the huge crowd which gathered around Kim and her husband Kanye’s car as they arrived at the Balmain show at Paris Fashion Week, in which her sister Kendall Jenner was walking, on Thursday. Vitalli was however not arrested on the scene.
