Def Leppard drummer Rick Allen has spoken about the trauma he still deals with two years after being assaulted in a Florida car park.
In March 2023, the 61-year-old, who’s been with Def Leppard since 1978, was attacked outside a Fort Lauderdale hotel by a 19-year-old. A police report found by the Daily Mail claimed Allen’s attacker intentionally rushed at him and knocked him to the ground, causing the drummer to hit his head. The aggressor then allegedly “batter[ed]” a woman who came to Allen’s aid.
