A Los Angeles jury has begun deliberating a paparazzo's claim that actor Keanu Reeves knocked him down with his Porsche and permanently injured his wrist.

Attorneys for both sides issued their closing arguments Friday before the jury deliberated about five minutes and left for the weekend. Jurors will resume work Monday.

Photographer Alison Silva claims the star of "The Matrix" hit him with his car in March 2007 while Silva was trying to shoot photos of Reeves. Silva says he was knocked to the pavement and his wrist will never fully heal.

Reeves' lawyer, Alfred Gerisch, says Silva stumbled on his own after he put his hand on the car's hood.

Silva's attorney, Joseph Farzam, says his client seeks $640,800 in compensation.
