Two protesters interrupt the world snooker championship, with one climbing on a table during the match and throwing orange powder while shouting 'oil and gas will kill us'.
abc.net.au/news/protesters-halt-snooker-world-championships/102234392The Crucible Theatre's famous green baize turned orange at the world snooker championship when a protester interrupted a match by jumping on the table and releasing a packet of powder, causing play to be suspended.
On one table, where Robert Milkins and Joe Perry were playing, a man leapt onto the table — scattering the balls — and threw orange dye over one half of the baize as boos and jeers came from the audience. On the other table, featuring a match between Mark Allen and Fan Zhengyi, a woman was stopped from getting onto the table by the quick-thinking response of referee Olivier Marteel.
