Bono rescued by armed police after being caught up in terror attack

Posted by | July 17, 2016 09:56 | Filed under: Media/Show Business


Bono was caught up in the Nice Bastille Day massacre.

The 56-year-old singer was on the terrace of La Petite Maison, next to the seafront in the French city when mass murderer Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel struck.

After Bouhlel drove a hired lorry into crowds enjoying a holiday firework display, killing 84 including 10 children, Bono and other diners were gripped by fear.

Since the attack, U2 posted on their Twitter account a picture of guitarist Edge with the message: “Love is bigger than anything in its way – Bono, Edge, Adam, Larry.”

…Bono owns a home in the nearby town of Eze, and had been relaxing with friends when the atrocity started at around 10.30pm last Thursday…

As the slaughter on the Promenade des Anglais became clear, the star was eventually rescued by armed officers who led him to the nearby Massena square.

    I’m going to comment on the Genius that is Bono…who somehow found a way to inject himself into a tragedy, drawing attention away from the dead and suffering victims, traumatized survivors, and heroic police and putting it squarely where it belongs…on him and the band…

    Rescued from what?? What an ass clown. Hey here’s an idea Paul. Stop charging 300 dollars a ticket so people have some cash to donate to the poor. Or maybe sell one of your mansions, and help the poor. Etc,etc,etc. Assclown.

    i could be mistaken but a french terrace is about 20 ft. above the ground. Did the police ring the doorbell first ?
