The Charmed actress said the man was harmed in the attack, and she was staying around to help him. But he luckily did have a friend that also stuck around to protect him.

Others told her to take photos of the attacker. She said by that point it was too late.
He was on a skateboard. Too fast. I chased. RT @attitudemilo: @rosemcgowan even a pic of the masked coward … http://t.co/3ShkS3USfY

McGowan also retweeted a fan who pointed out that the knockout game, while sometimes called a “fight,” is actually an assault.
TMZ reports that there is no word on the identities of either the victim or attacker.

The 40-year-old actress was on the beach with friend Courtenay Semel, according to Yahoo. McGowan is busy celebrating life as a newlywed after marrying longtime love Davey Detail back in October only a few months after becoming engaged. It was a third engagement for McGowan, but first marriage. By all accounts, this one is lasting.
Just before the attack, McGowan Instagrammed a photo of herself with a friend on the beach.
