Trapped Under Ice singer issues apology

Trapped Under Ice singer Justice Tripp has apologised over the assault of a fan in Essen, Germany while on tour as a part of the Rebellion Tour with Madball. The assaulted fan received a broken jaw and had to be fitted with two screws as part of the operation to fix his jaw.

Justice issued this statement regarding the incident.

"First off I'd like to say I'm sorry for not getting this done sooner. We've had very limited Internet access over here in Europe. There are a lot of things being said about the events in Essen a few days ago. Some are true some are not. I would first like to clarify that I didn't do what I did out of ANGER but what I thought was self defense. When I was knocked off the stage I hit my head, a lot of stuff after that is a blur. However it is clear that I took it too far and I'm sorry for that. Id like to keep the other parties name out of this, as I'm not certain if he is comfortable with being named. At end of the night I got the chance to apologize to him face to face and he accepted my apology. I think a lot of people may be unaware of that at this point. In any case, I'm very sorry to the other party involved. Im sorry to anyone who had to witness my stupid behavior. This is not typical behavior for me or my band. Don't feel discouraged to come out to the rebellion tour. Our actions do not represent the package. So again, I apologize."
