Football fan filmed snorting white powder off man's bald head in packed West Ham stadium

A shameless footy fan has been filmed snorting a line of white powder from a man's bald head inside a packed stadium.

The video - filmed inside West Ham's packed Olympic Stadium - shows one fan sprinkling a white substance on another man's head, who is standing in the row in front.

One fan can be heard shouting 'it's on your head, stay there' while others shout 'come on' to a fan behind them.

The supporter then approaches the bald man and snorts the substance with what appears to be a rolled-up bank note.

It's unclear when the incident took place, although the stands at West Ham's 66,000-capacity London Stadium appear packed.

The video has been viewed almost one million times on social media.

West Ham have since confirmed they're 'disgusted' by the footage and have suspended the season tickets of those involved, pending an investigation.

The Met Police have also been contacted for comment.

Back in 2020, The Mirror reported on a video that appeared to show two men snorting white powder from a policeman's helmet during celebrations on Merseyside, following Liverpool's title triumph.

The footage emerged of a group of grinning males showing off a policeman's hat with white powder on top of it.

The clip, which was posted on Twitter, shows two of the group appearing to snort from the hat.
