Man Receives Football Banning Order After Assaulting Police Officer
Friday, 9 August 2024
A Leeds United fan has been banned from attending all football matches in the UK for three years after he punched a police officer.
The incident occurred on 28 October last year when a group of Leeds United fans clashed with Huddersfield Town supporters in Wellington Street, ahead of the Championship fixture at Elland Road.
As officers tried to keep the two factions apart, Thomas Stiff, 19, punched a police officer in the face and promptly fled the scene.
