DBLOG – HEAR IT FIRST
Australian Idol winner Guy Sebastian has posted an announcement on social networking site Twitter saying he was threatened with a knife in a street mugging in LA.
“Oh my gosh, I just got mugged at knife-point no kidding!” he wrote. “Got a meatball subway and was met outside by two thugs who wanted cash! $150!”
News Limited reports the attack took place outside a Subway restaurant on the streets of Hollywood around 3am on Saturday.
“It was after working late in the studio and he didn’t have his wallet or phone on him, so just gave them the money he had,” his agent Titus Day said.
“He threw the money at them to distract them and when they went to get it, he ran and jumped in his car and went back to the hotel.”
But Sebastian did not contact police over the incident because he was not worried about the money.
“He said they were young and seemed like homeless guys, and that he didn’t feel like he was in serious danger,” Day said.
That’s a little daft, Guy. Not reporting it leaves them free to try it again.
