Arnold Schwarzenegger attacked in South Africa
Hollywood star Arnold Schwarzenegger was attacked Saturday by a man who kicked him in the back at a sporting event in South Africa that the action hero was
performing.
The bodybuilder and former politician was talking to fans at the Sandton Convention Center in Johannesburg when a man jumped up and kicked him in the back.
"Thank you for your concerns, but there's nothing to worry about," Schwarzenegger, 71, told Twitter.
"I thought I was just being pushed by the crowd, which happens a lot. I just realized I was kicked when I saw the video like all of you. I'm glad the idiot did
not interrupt my Snapchat. "
Schwarzenegger was in Johannesburg for the annual Arnold Classic Africa, an international multi-sport festival.
"He was sadly and unexpectedly attacked by a crazed fan while hiking to support the athletes," organizers said, adding that the attacker - who was immediately
arrested - was known to police by similar incidents in the past.
