Another man then came on to the stage to explain: “We have stopped the show, because they breached the door. You have got 3,000 people have broken the door outside and because of security, police have asked us to close the show. We apologise to you. This is nothing to do with us.”While no arrests have taken place, detectives from specialist crime have launched an urgent investigation and cordons remain in place at the O2 Academy.
The Met police gold commander, Ade Adelekan, described the incident as “extremely distressing” and urged any witnesses who are yet to speak with police to get in contact. Adelekan added: “I am aware of video being shared on social media. I would ask people to be sensible about what they share, and not to post material that will be upsetting to those affected by this incident.
“Where force has been used by police officers, those officers know they have to be accountable for their actions. The Met’s directorate of professional standards will view all material, including body-worn video footage from the officers at the scene. “In relation to a clip being widely shared, I can confirm that no police dogs were deployed to the location.”Anyone with mobile phone footage that may assist police is also asked to contact MetCC on Twitter.
