akon Akons Harassment Case Adjourned Again
During a concert at Dutchess Stadium in Fishkill in June 2007, 15-year-old Anthony Smith threw an object at Akon while he was onstage and the singer asked the crowd to point him out.

A security guard would drag the teenager to the stage and Akon would pick him up and throw him back into the crowd, striking a woman in the audience.

According to The Times Herald-Record, Akon did not show up for the hearing and the presiding judge, Harold D. Epstein, ordered that the singer should appear in court on August 5th.

Akon has only made one court appearance in the case. He plead not guilty to the charges in December but failed to appear in court in March.
