The attack occurred shortly after 4 a.m. in the lobby of the Mercer Hotel, the police said. Mr. Crowe was staying in a $3,000-a-day suite there and, unable to place a call to his wife in Australia, went to the lobby and threw the telephone at an employee behind the desk, cutting him below the right eye, the police said.

Mr. Crowe's publicist, Robin Baum, issued a statement denying that the actor had hit anyone: "After asking the front desk several times to replace a faulty phone in his room - and getting only attitude from the clerk on duty - Crowe brought the phone down to the front desk in an effort to address the situation in person. Words were exchanged and Crowe wound up throwing the phone against the wall. He regrets that he lost his temper, but at no time did he assault anyone or touch any hotel employee."
The criminal complaint stated that Mr. Crowe "admitted that he picked up the phone and threw it at informant because he was angry."
The employee was identified as Nestor Estrada, 28, of Greenpoint, Brooklyn. He spent the afternoon in seclusion in his apartment, decidedly less glamorous than the actor's room, with its broken buzzer and peeling paint and tin shingles painted to look like wood.
Way to keep up on this. Lookin out for your man! ;o)
