Police have arrested Michael Scott Axley and charged him with the murder of Andrew Richardson, the Korn fan who died after he was beaten during one of the band’s shows on July 30 in Atlanta. Axley, 24, was taken into custody Monday (July 7), after police received a tip from witnesses who saw the brawl and knew Axley, according to MTV News. Reports indicate Axley and Richardson argued during the concert and Axley allegedly punched Richardson, who then fell to the concrete floor, suffering a brain injury that would prove fatal. No word yet on when Axley is due in court.
