William Connolly, now better known as “Egg Boy”, cracked an egg on the head of Fraser Anning during a March 16 press conference, prompting the senator to hit him several times in the face. Victoria state police said after investigating footage of the incident they would not be pressing charges against Connolly. “The 17-year-old Hampton boy has been issued with an official caution in relation to the incident,” police said in a statement. Several men could be seen pinning Connolly to the ground after the egging.
