Excited fans getting ready to attend an Ed Sheeran concert have been left shocked after a shirtless man was wrestled to the ground by police.
The man was handcuffed outside the Southern Plaza at Adelaide Oval in front of a bevy of fangirls just before 7pm on Tuesday night.
In dramatic footage of the altercation, the man is heard saying he did nothing wrong as up to six police officers escort him from the main gates.
A police spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia the man was arrested for disorderly behaviour and was transported to hospital due to being intoxicated.

‘Who am I to say that I shouldn’t be using that every single day,’ he said.
‘I was speaking to my wife about it, it’s like, if you have the ability to do that, it should be utilised because you’re given that for a reason.
‘It’s not just to benefit me, to have a lovely time doing these shows … I just hope it does make people happy.’
The much-loved musician has already played shows in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney, where he wrapped himself in a pride flag.
He will wrap-up his Australia tour in Perth on Sunday, March 12.
