London - Two stewards were shot during a concert by American rapper Kanye West at a venue in Britain, police said Wednesday.
The men are thought to have been attacked as a group of people were being escorted from an arena near the town of Solihull, in the British Midlands, for not having tickets to the event.
Police were called and the stewards were taken to hospital with gunshot wounds following the incident late Tuesday.
Police said: 'This incident involved individuals who had been ejected from the venue for attempting to try to gain entrance to a pop concert without tickets. Firearms were discharged and two stewards were taken to hospital with gunshot wounds.'
Kanye West was performing the last night of his five-date Touch The Sky tour in Britain.
