Chris Brown had to make acquaintances with police once again over the weekend -- but this time, it might not have been his fault. He totaled his Porsche in Beverly Hills on Saturday, apparently while trying to get away from the paparazzi.

Police say the accident happened around noon on Saturday. Breezy's rep says he was being "ruthlessly pursued" by some photogs and began backing down an alleyway to get away. But he was cut off by two other vehicles and wound up smacking into a wall.

Cops say they're looking into it but don't know whether the paparazzi have been identified.
