Flying Sheep's Head Hurts Concert Fan
OSLO, NORWAY-March 11, 2003 — A flying sheep's head hit a concertgoer and fractured his skull at a concert of metal band Mayhem.

The band, part of Norway's death metal music scene, was carving up a dead sheep as part of its stage act when the animal's head flew off lead singer Maniac's knife and struck 25-year-old Per Kristian Hagen.

"My relationship to sheep is a bit ambivalent now. I like them, but not when they come flying through the air," Hagen told The
Associated Press Monday from his hospital room. He is expected to recover.

The show was Thursday in Bergen, 302 miles west of the capital, Oslo.

Hagen filed involuntary assault and battery charges against the band. The charges carry a maximum sentence of six months in prison.

Mayhem member Rune Eriksen, whose stage name is Blasphemer, said the incident was unfortunate. "The whole thing was an accident, but maybe it would be an idea for another show," he said.

Eriksen promised Hagen a free ticket to Mayhem's next performance.

Police detective Carl-Petter Leganger said an investigation has started but "nothing suggests this was a conscious act."
