Police Shut Down Ed Sheeran’s Street Performance in India


Police in Bengaluru, India, stopped Ed Sheeran from performing on the street before his concert on Sunday night.

The singer decided to busk on the city’s Church Street ahead of his concert, but police officers literally pulled the plug, saying Sheeran didn’t have proper permission. “We rejected it because Church Street is a very busy area and we try to keep the people moving there,” said Shekhar H. Tekkannavar, Deputy Commissioner of Police, Bengaluru Central division. Ed Sheeran’s impromptu gig on Church Street hit a sour note as Bengaluru police pulled the plug over missing permissions.
