Police put the boot in over Blaine’s stunt

SOME onlookers hurl eggs and golf balls at him, others flash their breasts or bang drums to wake him up in the middle of the night.

And now London Metropolitan Police are putting the boot in over illusionist David Blaine’s starvation stunt.

Police say the circus around Blaine’s clear box, which is suspended from a crane near Tower Bridge, has escalated to such a point that it is costing large amounts of money and creating potential public order problems.
