A Peter Kay comedy show descended into chaos when a bomb threat forced an emergency evacuation, leaving thousands of frightened audience members scrambling for exits. Omar Majed from Washwood Heath, Birmingham, has been charged in connection with the hoax that disrupted the much-anticipated performance.

The 34-year-old will appear before magistrates on Monday to answer charges related to the incident, which police say caused unnecessary panic and wasted valuable emergency resources. Comedian Peter Kay, known for his down-to-earth humor, was reportedly shaken by the incident, with many fans expressing their disappointment on social media about the interrupted performance and the evening's unnecessary drama.
