The Wanted band members Siva Kaneswaran and Jay McGuiness were recently attacked by a homeless guy with a knife after they tried to give him money.

A source told TMZ.com that the guys were in Denver on tour, where they went to see the new Johnny Depp movie 'Transcendence' before their concert, and they were approached by a homeless man who was asking for money when the singers were leaving the theater.

The source said that band member Kaneswaran obliged and gave the guy a few bucks, but he demanded more money to which the guys turned him down but the homeless guy did not take no for an answer and pulled out a knife.

The source added that the members then tussled with the homeless man and he eventually got away.
