Qantas chief executive, Alan Joyce, was hit with a pie in the face during a business breakfast event in Perth.

 

Alan Joyce, CEO of Qantas, was attacked with a lemon meringue pie at a business breakfast event in Perth, Australia.

 

Tony Overheu, who carried out the stunt on Tuesday, said he did it to make a statement about Joyce’s support for same-sex marriage. The 67-year-old has since apologised to the Qantas chief executive.

 

Mr Joyce was one of twenty Australian executives who signed a petition in March 2017 urging Australian PM Malcolm Turnbull to legalise same-sex marriage.

 

“No attempt at bullying us into suppressing our voice will work,” Mr Joyce told reporters. He has said that he will press charges.
