1Xtra Live: Rapper Krept 'good' after assault at Arena Birmingham

Rapper Krept has said he is "good" and will be "back in no time" after he was assaulted backstage at a BBC Radio 1Xtra live event in Birmingham.

The sold-out Saturday night show at the Arena Birmingham was brought to a close early following the incident.

The rapper, one half of duo Krept and Konan, suffered a slash wound. He tweeted on Sunday: "Can't keep a good man down."

Police said medical help was given on site and he did not go to hospital.

 

West Midlands Police are looking at CCTV from inside the venue and speaking with potential witnesses. Forensic investigations are also continuing.

The force told the BBC the event would have been risk assessed in advance "because all large events are".

1Xtra Live was billed as an "unmissable night" with a "mix of emerging and established artists", including Aitch, French Montana, Ms Banks and headliner Wizkid.

Tickets for the Arena Birmingham, which has a capacity of 15,800, had sold out.

The gig was broadcast live across 1Xtra and Radio 1 but the stream ended when the event was called off.

The BBC said it was sorry to do so but safety was a priority.

In a statement, the corporation added: "We are upset and saddened that something like this should happen to a guest at one of our events and we remain in close contact and continue to offer our full support."

Krept's manager Docta Cosmic and Konan both tweeted on Saturday night, saying: "Bro's good."
