Stranger 'throws a brick at a busker' in Birmingham city centre

  • last year
A busker captured the moment a complete stranger apparently attacked and "threw a brick" at him during a performance.
Singer Osaze Aigbe, 25, says he was confronted by a man while performing on the streets in Birmingham.
Osaze was performing at the junction of Union Street and High Street on May 18 when the incident happened.
A video shows a hooded man approaching Osaze, pulling his chair and threatening him with it.
Two police officers then arrive to calm the situation, allowing Osaze to continue his performance.
But moments later, the stranger returns and allegedly throws a brick at Osaze, forcing him to get up and grab his chair to defend himself.
West Midlands Police said a 31-year-old was arrested and charged with assault.
