An angry man threw a boot at former Australian prime minister John Howard during a debate at Cambridge University, the quick-thinkingstudent who caught the shoe said on Thursday.
Andrew Chapman, a senior officer at the Cambridge Union Society which organized the debate, described how he stepped in to stop the boot thrown by an Australian. Howard "took it amazingly well — he just brushed off the incident", according to the 20-year-old politics student and keen cricketer.
When Howard got up to speak, the man shouted: "You make me ashamed to be Australian. Go home, racist." A short while later, Chapman said, "he reached down to his foot, and I knew what was going to happen. I stood up, and got in between Howard and this gentlemen. He threw this boot and I caught it."
The man, whose identity remains unknown, was escorted out of the building by university security.
