Douglas Courthouse

A Douglas teenager has admitted being drunk and abusive following a mass brawl on Douglas promenade.

17 year old Christopher John Crellin is charged with being drunk and disorderly and resisting a police officer in the execution of his duty.

Police were called to disperse a crowd involved in a fight at the juction of Regent Street in June.

Crellin refused to move on and was obnoxious to police officers, before squaring up to them.

He shouted insults and it took three officers to restrain him when he was arrested.

On the journey to police headquarters he continually banged his head on the cage and shouted threats to the police.

He was bailed for August 27th when he'll appear in court for sentence.
