Akon Charged in Crazy Stage Toss Incident

Akon! WTF? There's no need to throw a kid off the stage! Cops apparently agree and have now charged the R & B singer with misdemeanor endangering the welfare of a minor and second-degree harassment.

The charges stem from an incident last June in upstate NY when he was performing at a concert and someone in the crowd allegedly threw something at the singer on stage. Akon asked the crowd to point out the culprit. A security guard picked a 15-year-old out from the crowd and sent him up to the stage, where Akon hoisted him onto his shoulders and flung him into the crowd. Smack that! The kid landed on another teen who told the local paper she was later diagnosed with a concussion.

Akon is scheduled to appear in a local court on Monday for arraignment. Locked up!

Its about time, I wonder what took so long.

Misdemeanor?! Should be a felony for doing that!

If you go to concerts given by thugs, be prepared for a little physicality.
