Noel Gallagher attacker pleads guilty
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 23 November 2009
The man who attacked Noel Gallagher while Oasis performed at the Canadian version of V Festival in Toronto last year has pleaded guilty to assault.
Daniel Sullivan admitted causing bodily harm to Gallagher in the Ontario Court of Justice on Friday. The court heard how Sullivan managed to get on stage, lunging towards Noel G and then lining himself up to attack Liam Gallagher before being brought down by security guards.
Noel G suffered three broken ribs during the attack and had to pull out of a number of live commitments as a result.
Sullivan, who claims to have been so drunk at the time of the attack he can’t remember how he managed to get on the V Festival stage, will be sentenced on 5 Feb next year.
