Description | David Cameron's bad week got a little bit worse yesterday when he was hit by an egg thrown by a teenaged hoodie during a campaign visit to a college in Cornwall.
The Tory leader was struck on the shoulder as he emerged from answering students’ questions at Cornwall College Saltash.
The egg glanced off his shoulder and splattered on the jacket of a police officer beside him. The yolk stained Mr Cameron’s white shirt.
The young hoodie-wearing man who threw the egg - who was named as Tyler Dixon, a bricklaying student from nearby Ernesettle - was immediately led away but was released after police established that he did not have any more missiles on him. He will not face any charges. |
