A tour van containing merch for Harry Styles‘ tour has been hijacked by gunmen in Brazil, according to local news reports.
As reported by Brazilian outlet G1, the van was driving south on the motorway towards the southern city of Curtiba, where the singer is due to perform tomorrow (December 10).
The outlet added that three men stopped the vehicle on the BR-116 road, with the attackers yet to be discovered.
