Liev Schreiber is facing a harassment charge in suburban New York, where his lawyer said the actor is accused of shoving a photographer's camera.

The Rockland County district attorney's office says the star of Showtime's "Ray Donovan" is due for arraignment Tuesday in a village court in Nyack. The harassment charge dates to June 7 and is a violation, not a crime.

The DA's office wouldn't say more Monday.

Schreiber's lawyer, Jonathan Ripps, told The Journal News the actor maintains his innocence. Ripps hasn't immediately responded to messages Monday.

Ripps told the newspaper Schreiber is accused of pushing the camera away after its flash went off. Ripps says the allegation "doesn't rise to the level of any law being broken."

"Ray Donovan" has been filming recently in Nyack.
