Accidentally meet (3,4)

I believe the answer is:

run into

(Other definitions for run into that I've seen before include "Encounter (someone)" , "Happen to meet or collide with" , "Meet (a person) by chance" , "Meet accidentally on the trot?" , "Meet (someone) unexpectedly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Independent.
