Man charged with assaulting Gallagher

Police in Canada say they have charged a man with attacking Oasis rocker Noel Gallagher at a concert in Toronto.

The band said on its website that it was performing the song 'Morning Glory' at the Virgin festival when a man rushed the band from the back of the stage and pushed Gallagher, causing him to fall on his speakers.

Toronto police Constable Tony Vella says 47-year-old Daniel Sullivan has been charged with assault.

The band says Gallagher was taken to hospital after the show to be examined for a suspected fractured rib and ligament damage.
