Was Madonna just horsing around?

Despite her rep’s claim that a pesky paparazzi was to blame for Madonna’s weekend fall from a horse in the Hamptons, the officers who responded to the scene said the Material One made no mention of any shutterbug involvement.

“She was a vctim of a fall from a horse. We have no mention of the paparazzi,” Officer Chris Brenner, a spokesman for the Southampton Village Police Department, tells E! News. “We got a call that the subject fell off the horse and treated it as an aided case.

The call came in at 4:24 p.m. Saturday and, per standard operating procedure, Southampton’s finest showed up to assist emergency medical personnel.

“Above complainant was a victim of fall from horse. Unknown injury. Bridgehampton Fire Department/ambulance responded and transported to Southampton Hospital,” said Brenner, quoting the police report.

That directly contradicts the statement to E! News from longtime Madonna spinmeister Liz Rosenberg, who said a photographer “jumped out of the bushes to photograph the singer,” spooking the horse and causing the spill.
