I was once hit by half a brick throw at me in Copenhagen Street, between Islington and King's Cross.
It was well thrown too - hit me right on the head.
I was on a motorcycle thank fuck, so it hit the crash helmet, then bounced onto my leg, leaving a huge bruise. I hate to think what might have happened if I'd been on my bike.
Never did see who threw it - probably thrown off a balcony or window. I have since formed the opinion that the council estates round there should be demolished and they shouldn't bother telling the residents beforehand.
