On October 26 at a concert in Melbourne from Akon there was big trouble and a gang fight. Akon halted the music at his show and jumped into the audience trying to stop the brawl. 18 people needed medical attention because of the fight between rival gangs.
In the video you can see Akon speaking to the croud. He wanted to calm them down and remember the that he worked hard to bring his show to Australia.
Some people reported that some persons were being smashed over the head with glass bottles.
A group of up to 50 people rushed the entrance at about 9pm in a bid to gain entry to the concert. Akon risked his own safety as he jumped in the crowd. The promoter of Akon, Dwayne Cross said: “One of the things people should take note of is an artist didn’t have too much concern for his own safety to go down and try and make things better.”
Ambulance Victoria spokesman Paul Bentley said: “They were all men aged between 22 and 54. They were all suffering cuts and bruising, some of them had to be given some pain relief. They were all taken to the Royal Melbourne Hospital in a stable condition.” One man has been arrested in connection with the violence, it was reported.
Akon is going to play tonight in Sydney.
