Oasis band member Noel Gallagher was assaulted while performing on stage at the Virgin Festival on Toronto Island on Sunday night.
A fan captured the incident on video and posted the footage on YouTube.
In the clip (above), a man appears from the side or the rear of the stage as Noel and Liam Gallagher perform their hit “(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?”
You can see him rush the stage from the side viewing area and push the guitarist to the ground..
The attacker then appears to skip away and try and jump into the crowd, but is caught by security guards who drag him back onto stage and towards the rear.
Liam then tries to jump into the mess, trying to punch the attacker as he is being dragged away, but doesn’t deliver the blow.
The rest of the band immediately put down their instruments and leave the stage as the house lights come on.
After about five minutes passed, Noel returned to the stage and played a song for the 25,000 fans. Liam also later returned to join in a performance of “Wonderwall.”
The band then closed the show with a cover of The Beatles’ “I Am The Walrus.”
The Toronto Star reports that police have arrested a man in his 30s.
The incident happens at 01.30 minutes in..
