Akon is set to go on trial for an incident last year where he tossed a fan off stage during a concert.
The singer was performing a concert in Fishkill, New York in June of 2007 when a fan reportedly threw a Frisbee in his face. He then proceeded to pull the boy out of the crowd and toss him back in, landing on another concertgoer, who claims she suffered a concussion from the incident.
According to the Associated Press, Akon has asked for a jury trial in the Fishkill Town Court for Wednesday, September 3. He is due back in court on December 1.
