Shots were fired at last night's Nas gig at the Brixton Academy.
A witness told NME.com: “It was about 40 minutes into the gig when suddenly two gunshots went off, they came from right in the centre of the venue.
“All of sudden everyone was pushing right to the sides, people were falling over trying to get away from where it was happening. The only place to go was in the girls toilets on the right, there was boys, girls, whatever in there.???
The show was abandoned and Nas and the crowd were left apparently unharmed.
A police spokesperson explained that officers were sent to the Academy "at 21.56pm following reports of shots been fired inside".
