Hells Angels Plotted to Kill Mick Jagger

Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger escaped an assassination plot hatched in 1969
by the Hells Angels, a new British Broadcasting Corp. documentary has claimed.

Basically the story states that the Hells Angels were angry at Jagger for saying he would never use them for security again, after the tradegy at Altamont in December of the same year. An 18 year old concert goer was killed by one of the Angels after brandishing a gun in an altercation with some of them.

According to the source in the article the Angels hatched a plan to kill Jagger while he vacationed in his Long Island, NY home. The plan was sidetracked by a storm...

Mangold said the men tried to reach Jagger by sea. "The boat was hit by a
storm and all of the men were thrown overboard," he was quoted as saying. They
all survived but made no other attempt on his life, Mangold said.
