Nigerian dancer Korra attacked with knife in London

Nigerian dancer Korra Obidi fell victim to a brutal attack in London.

In a video shared on her Instagram account, the So You Think You Can Dance alum recalled being physically assaulted by a stranger with a knife.

“There was a knife,” she captioned the video, which saw her being treated by first responders as a yellow knife lay next to her on the pavement. She continued, “Acid attack on me in the U.K. in the middle of a live stream.”

She further noted, “There’s been a lot of hate in the past but this physical assault is a wake-up call.” The dancer also asked her followers to contact [email protected] if they have any information “as to the attacker, black female. 5 foot.”

The 32-year-old then wrote in the comments section, “Guys I’m in the hospital. Safety with travel is no longer a luxury but a necessity. The acid was salicylic and I was lucky. Love you guys.”

A spokesperson for Metropolitan Police revealed to E! News that police received a call on Thursday afternoon regarding an assault in central London.

“Officers attended and found a woman in her 30s with a cut to her hand and reporting a liquid had been thrown at her face,” the spokesperson said. “She was taken to hospital for treatment. The liquid was later confirmed to be a non-noxious cosmetic item.”
