Man who assaulted door staff awaits sentencing

A man who assaulted two door staff at a busy Douglas bar will appear in court in September for sentencing.

Toby James Cross of Laureston Terrace in Douglas appeared before magistrates at Douglas Courthouse.

The 25 year old pleaded guilty to assaulting the two men outside the Front Porch on Duke Street on February 21.

Magistrates said an assault on staff while drunk and on licensed premises was a serious matter, and asked for pre-sentencing reports to be prepared.

Cross was bailed in the sum of £250 and will appear again on September 10.
