Russell Brand can escape Hollywood for the comforts of New Orleans. He can escape pop singer Katy Perry, who he is divorcing. But he can't escape justice. 
 
 The British actor turned himself in to New Orleans law enforcement Thursday and posed for a mug shot. WWL-TV.com was first to post Brand's picture. 
 
 
 
 New Orleans Police Department spokesman Gary Flot confirmed earlier Thursday that a warrant had been issued for Brand's arrest on a charge of simple damage to property in the amount of $700. The warrant stemmed from an incident Monday in which a photographer, identified by online sources as Timothy Jackson, said he was taking pictures of Brand in the 500 block of Julia Street Monday at about 7:10 p.m. when the actor wrestled the iPhone from his hand and threw it through the window of a Warehouse District law firm. 
 
 On Thursday afternoon, TMZ.com was reporting that a production assistant for the film Brand is here working on dropped by the law firm last night and plunked down $240 for the repairs. No word on the photographer's cellphone. 
 
 
 
 Brand, 36, is in New Orleans shooting Oscar-winning screenwriter Diablo Cody's untitled film, which also stars Octavia Spencer, also an Oscar-winner, for "The Help."

– Russell Brand is a wanted man no more: He turned himself into New Orleans police today to face charges that he grabbed a paparazzo's iPhone and threw it through a window, reports the Times-Picayune. The misdemeanor warrant for simple criminal damage to property was issued last night, TMZ reports. Brand has offered to pay for the nearby law firm's broken window, but no word on whether he's offered similar restitution for the iPhone. Brand has been in New Orleans filming a movie. The confrontation went down Monday night, and the photographer involved named Brand in a police report citing "criminal damages." The pap was filming Brand with his iPhone at the time, and yesterday Brand tweeted a cheeky defense: "Since Steve Jobs died I cannot bear to see anyone use an iphone irreverently, what I did was a tribute to his memory."
