Ace Show Biz reports that Akon "was videotaped, in between performances on the show, trying to 'crowdsurf to a camera stand about 100 yards off stage' and when he got there he grabbed one of the female fans and pushed her into the crowd as she tried to hold his hand. He then grabbed the other lady who tried to embrace him from behind and tossed her into the crowd." The promoters put out an "unedited" clip of the incident to show the "full story".
Here is the statement we received: "We are shocked to hear that there is a video clip circulating that suggests Akon treated a fan badly during his August 30th performance in Guyana. There were no incident reports stemming from the event. Despite a late start, the concert was a tremendous success and we hope that Akon will come back soon."
Ace Show Biz has more on the incident and denial as well as the video. - Check it out here
