Sir Paul McCartney has been left shaken after a mob attached his tour bus in Mexico City, it’s been reported.

The former Beatle was apparently on board the vehicle when the gang jumped up and down on the roof after a gig in the city.

Police were called to defuse the situation, according to the Daily Mirror.

"At first his security team thought it was just swarms of fans but when people started scaling the bus, the situation changed in a flash,” a source said.

Sir Paul had earlier wowed fans with a performance at the city’s Foro Sol Stadium.

The singer is currently performing on his Up And Coming world tour, which calls in the UK this month.
