The lads are performing across the USA on their headlining run of dates, but members Niall Horan and Liam Payne were swarmed by a large group of fans in Manhattan this afternoon as they were going about their day off.

Horan took to social networking site Twitter and wrote: "This is a complete joke. Ridic. Day off, wana chill."

His followers quickly responded with a flood of concerned messages and one of them tweeted: "It disgusts me how some 'fans' treat you guys. Makes me upset to be a fan :'( Honestly we're not all like this. Much love xx"

Liam Payne also shared his views on the stressful experience and added: "That wasn't even funny."
