A British stand-up comedian has been charged with criminal damage after he allegedly interrupted a show to snatch and smash an audience member's phone.
Audience members said Lee Hurst, 46, a former star of defunct comedy panel show They Think It's All Over,
interrupted his performance at Stoke Pub in Guildford, England, after he spotted a young man text messaging near the back of the crowd, The Sun reported Thursday.
I'm fed up with you … people filming me and putting it on YouTube,
Hurst was quoted as saying after smashing the man's $440 phone on the floor.
Hurst is scheduled to appear in court on the criminal damage charge at the end of December.
