People. Where are your manners?

Singer Leona Lewis was at a book signing at Waterstones at Piccadilly in London, and Lewis was hit by a fan after she signed his book.

One fan at the scene told the BBC: “My brother saw the whole incident. He [the attacker] walked up there with the book, she signed it and, as she looked up, he just punched her. He [my brother] actually heard the impact.”

Another eyewitness added: “She was running out with her hand over her eye and I just saw a man on the floor. Suddenly the security all jumped on him and they were trying to pull him out and he was just laughing, he thought it was funny.”

Lewis’s spokesman said: “Leona was a victim of an unprovoked attack this afternoon at her book singing. The police were called immediately and medical attention has been sought. Leona’s understandably badly shaken and apologizes to the fans she was unable to meet and complete signings for.”

This just goes to show you that everyone is vulnerable everywhere, and the amount of security one has does not prevent things like this from happening. Let’s be careful out there!
