Disabled man 'unfairly removed' from O2 Arena after venue staff mistook his medical condition for being drunk
Briefly

Matthew Parrott, a lymphoma patient, was mistakenly identified as intoxicated and removed from a concert. He stated, 'Sometimes, I walk in an awkward way... It was an unfortunate accident.'
Following the incident, the O2 venue apologized and offered, 'We were sorry to hear of this... our teams have been in touch with Mr Parrott directly and have reached a resolution on this case.'
Despite being barred from re-entry, Mr. Parrott explained, 'I tried very much to explain that the fall wasn't a result of drinking too much alcohol, and that it was because I have this medical condition.'
