Noel Gallagher does a spot of involuntary crowd surfing in Toronto

A man has been charged with assault after an attack on Oasis star Noel Gallagher during the band's set at the V Festival in Canada on Sunday.

The guitarist, 41, was admitted to hospital after a man ran on stage and pushed him over while he played guitar.

Toronto police said Daniel Sullivan, 47, had been charged over the incident.

The incident happens about 1 minute 30 into the clip.


The incident came as the band performed the title track to their 1995 album (What's The Story) Morning Glory?

Gallagher's attacker was hauled to the ground by security guards. The guitarist's younger brother Liam, who was singing, had to be restrained from retaliating.

Despite his injuries, Gallagher returned to the stage a few minutes later to complete the set but was taken to hospital after the show.
