Common Assault charge
I have been charged with common assault (battery) following an incident in December last year when I was working as a doorman at a nightclub.
A fight had begun near the entrance to the premises involving three customers who we had suspected of using cocaine in the toilets. Myself and two colleague intervened, we restrained one male and eventually removed him from the premises, along with his friend. My two colleagues had positioned themselves outside the club and then the girlfriend of one of the two men stood on the door in front of me and tried to gain entry. I had several shouted at her to move away and she ignored me. She then lunged at me and attempted to scratch my face and neck. I responded by pushing her with my right hand making contact with her collarbone area, with sufficient force to move her out of my physical remit, but not with enough force to cause injury. She remained on her feet throughout.
The woman's boyfriend who was one of the males we had ejected then rushed at me and my colleague restrained him. The male bit his arm, and my colleague punched him and knocked him out. He sustained cuts and bruising to the face. Police and ambulance arrived and the male refused medical treatment. We gave our personal details to the police officers.
10 days later I received a call from the police stating that they needed me to attend the police station where I would be arrested on suspicion of ABH. I was interviewed and declined to comment and referred the police to the incident report I had written which they had seized from the club. I was bailed pending further investigation until 25th February.
Returning in February I was told that I had been charged with battery against the female. Yet I was never interviewed in respect of this incident and the aggrieved had waited until the 5th February to submit her statement. She stated that I had grabbed her by the throat and then punched her in the face. She

well wizard66 if you read the question properly Andy never hit anyone and I personally don't think he deserves this abuse. Maybe some doormen are violent but in my clubbing days I found them to be polite and professional. I think they do a difficult job and work unsociable hours and put up with alot of sh*te. With all the fights, guns and stabbings happening regularly now I would not like to think my hubby had to deal with people like that. I think before you prejudge this guy how would you deal with drunken thugs who are shouting very close to your face and threatning to hit you? It takes alot of patience and most men do not have that. I don't blame doormen for occasionally lashing out as long as it is justified no one is perfect and usually the p*ssheads deserve it anyway. Anyway Andy to answer your question (I read it on the other thread) I don't think there would be enough evidence at all so try not to worry and don't let these pillocks get to you!
