Harry Styles appeared to get grabbed in the crotch by a fan during a concert in Los Angeles over the weekend.

The 'Sign of the Times' singer was performing at the We Can Survive charity show at the Hollywood Bowl on Saturday evening (October 21) when the incident happened.

Fan footage of Harry shows the star performing to fans in the front row, as a number of hands reached out to touch him.

However, one hand appeared to grab the singer in the crotch area, before he turned abruptly away and rejoined the rest of his band.

Digital Spy has reached out to Harry's representatives for comment.

Many fans have responded in outrage to the incident on social media, with some labelling it "sexual assault". The hashtag #RespectHarry has also been gaining momentum online.

"It's absolutely disgusting what [happened] to Harry," wrote one fan. "This is not a fan. This don't represent us. He's a human being so we have to."

Another added: "Celebs are people NOT things you can mistreat, I hope people are acknowledging this as sexual assault & I hope Harry is ok."
