Akon charged

Akon is great at kid-tossing
Akon charged for kid-tossing incident

Remember when Akon threw that kid off the stage in June at his concert in Fishkill, New York? The shit finally hit the fan today. The singer is scheduled to appear in court on Monday and be arraigned on charges of endangering the welfare of a minor and second degree harassment, both misdemeanors. BBC News says:

Injured fan Abby Rosa said she had hired a lawyer over the incident. Audience members at the concert told Associated Press a spectator lobbed something at the singer and Akon asked the crowd to point out the culprit. A security guard picked out a 15-year-old and sent him up to the stage, where Akon is said to have picked him up onto his shoulders and threw him into the crowd. Abby Rosa said the boy landed on her. She told a local newspaper she was later diagnosed with a concussion.

No basis for criminal charges? To recap, Akon tossed a 15-year-old kid off a four-foot stage. Said kid landed on top of another kid giving her a concussion. Now I’m not familiar with New York law but I think you’re not really supposed to do that. But don’t take my word as gospel because I have been wrong before on matters pertaining to the law. Like my voyeurism arrest from earlier this year. Uhhh, if you don’t want me looking in your bathroom window, you shouldn’t live in a house with such a climbable tree.
