Def Leppard drummer Rick Allen says he is recovering from an attack earlier this month outside a Florida hotel.
Allen, who was in South Florida to perform a show at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, was attacked while taking a smoke break outside the Four Seasons hotel on Fort Lauderdale Beach.
Police arrested a 19-year-old man, but said they don’t have a motive for the attack. They did not identify either the suspect or Allen in the police report.

But in a social media post, Allen, 59, said he’s thankful for all the support he has received from his fans.
