Cara Delevingne and Margot Robbie’s Brit filmmaker pals ‘leave paparazzo with broken arm in clash while defending stars’
CARA Delevingne and Hollywood star Margot Robbie were at the centre of a punch-up which saw two British filmmakers arrested at a celebrity restaurant in Argentina on Sunday.
The shaken stars had just finished a luxury meal at the famous celeb haunt Patagonia Sur in at 3am when a paparazzo tried to take their picture.
Josey McNamara, a hit movie producer and business partner of , and keygrip Jac Hopkins, got into a scuffle with snapper Pedro Alberto Orquera who ended up on the floor bleeding with a broken arm.
The two Brits were arrested and taken to a police station in the capital for questioning while it is understood Margot and Cara fled the scene.
Pedro has now said he is preparing to file a lawsuit.
, 32, had been eating at Argentine celebrity chef Francis Mallmann’s restaurant in the early hours of Sunday when the incident happened.
The pair were in the country with the producers, who have previously worked with the star after jetting in following Paris Fashion Week.

They had been dining at the exclusive celebrity hangout in La Boca area when photographer Pedro was bashed by the men.
Pedro told The Sun: “It was a brutal attack. Really cowardly.
“They tried to take my camera to delete the pictures that I had taken.
“I started running away from them because they were hitting me.
“While I was running from them they kicked me hard so my camera went up in the air and I fell on the floor and injured my arm.
“I was bleeding an awful lot. I was losing a lot of blood, in a few minutes the police arrived.”
The girls had been entering the car when the incident occured – and witnesses say Margot nearly fell out of the vehicle as the driver rushed to speed away.
Onlookers called 911 after watching the brawl – and Pedro was rushed to hospital where he is awaiting surgery for “serious injuries”.
A police report shows that McNamara and Hopkins told cops Pedro was “responsible for his own injuries” as the stars had not given their consent for photos to be taken.
McNamara and Hopkins appeared in front of magistrates on Sunday afternoon – and it’s thought Margot and Delevingne flew to the south of the country alone later that day.
McNamara worked with Australian beauty Robbie in the due-to-be released Barbie, along with Hopkins who was part of the crew.
It comes as Robbie last month worried fans after she was spotted looking upset following a visit to Delevingne’s home.
The concerning pictures were taken just a week after Cara was seen looking dishevelled and distressed at Van Nuys airport in Los Angeles after returning from Burning Man.
The model’s friends have expressed worry over her increasingly erratic behaviour, including smoking what appeared to be a pipe outside a sex shop last month.
Margot and Cara became friends after meeting in a bar – before their Suicide Squad days.

The close pals even once got matching smiley face tattoos on their big toes.
The Sun has approached the stars for comment.
