Attacker admits stage shove
Daniel Sullivan pleads guilty to assault causing bodily harm. Oasis was performing at the Virgin Music Festival on Toronto Island when the assault took place. Sullivan was intoxicated and only remembers attempting to climb over a fence. At the time of the attack Noel was facing the crowd and playing his guitar. Sullivan shoved him violently from behind. Noel suffered three fractured ribs when he fell forward on to a speaker. Sullivan turned and was about to attack Noel’s brother Liam Gallagher but was tackled by security.
