Zac Efron assaulted by crazed fan

Thursday, 9 October 2008

Zac Efron might be regretting making the trip to London to promote High School Musical 3 after he was ambushed last night by an 'crazed fan.'

The man launched himself at Zac before security guards could stop him.

Zac and his girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens were leaving the Apollo theatre after seeing Josh Hartnett in Rain Man when the attack happened.

The middle aged man rushed up to the couple and started shouting abuse and pointing at the young stars.

The unknown attacker was carrying a laptop and witnesses say he was trying to grab Zac's hair.

According to reports the man wouldn't let go of Zac and they ended up on the floor. Luckily a bodyguard stepped in and tackled the abusive man.

High School Musical fans are hoping that the attack won't make Zac leave London.

They loved seeing Zac, Vanessa, Ashley Tisdale and the rest of the High School Musical cast at the premiere on Tuesday night.

Will Zac stay in London? Only time will tell...
