Zac Efron Attacked by Crazed Fan!

Zac Efron, the star of the High School Musical films, is recovering today from an unprovoked attack that took place as he left a West End theatre with girlfriend and fellow film star Vanessa Hudgens.

Efron was leaving the Apollo in Shaftesbury Avenue when a middle-aged man - thought to be a deranged fan - began shouting and pointing at him.

The bespectacled attacker, who was carrying a laptop computer under one arm, was then said to have lunged forward and tried to grab his hair.

An onlooker said:

‘Some guy was just stood near the door where Zac and Vanessa emerged.

‘He just reached over and grabbed the side of Zac’s head. There was no provocation. It all turned into a bit of a mess.

‘He was shouting all kinds of things at Zac. Their security team eventually dealt with it. They had to bundle Zac into a car, but at one point it looked as though the man was going to be pushed into it with him.’
