Professor Green 'Bottle Attacker' Appears In Court

October 19, 2010
Professor Green 'Bottle Attacker' Appears In CourtA man accused of thrusting a broken bottle into Professor Green's neck has appeared in court.

Anthony Jones, 25, is alleged to have attacked the rapper outside Cargo in London in May 2009.

London's Snaresbrook Crown Court heard how Jones launched a "cowardly and vicious" assault against Green, and shouted at him: “You're f*cking dead.”

The 25-year-old denies wounding the star with intent, reports The Sun. The case continues.

Green has since found fame with his debut album 'Alive Till I'm Dead', which was released earlier this year. The rapper is set to embark on a UK tour in December.
