Rock singer Marilyn Manson has been injured after part of his stage set collapsed on him during a concert in New York.

It's understood the 48 year-old was climbing the prop - in the shape of two giant guns - when it collapsed about an hour into his show in Manhattan.

He was carried off the stage in a stretcher and taken to hospital - but it's not yet clear how seriously he's been hurt.

Fans attending the concert captured the moment it happened:
