Comedienne-actress Amy Schumer has decided she will not take photographs with fans anymore after having an uncomfortable encounter with an overzealous male fan in Greenville, South Carolina.

Schumer took a photograph of the man and shared it on Instagram, reports aceshowbiz.com.

She explained what happened in the caption of the image.

"This guy in front of his family just ran up next to me scared the s**t out of me. Put a camera in my face," Schumer wrote.

"I asked him to stop and he said, 'No, it's America and we paid for you'. This was in front of his daughter. I was saying stop and no. Great message to your kid (sic)", she added.

The "Trainwreck" actress said that she will not take "pictures with people anymore" because of this incident.

"Yes, legally you are allowed to take a picture of me. But I was asking you to stop and saying no. I will not take pictures with people anymore and it's because of this dude in Greenville," Schumer added.
