Docker on assault rap

-

ENRAGED Fremantle player Michael Johnson punched two men in the face, knocking one to the ground, during a late night drunken street fight after one of them filmed him in a kebab shop with his pants down.

While video played in a Perth courtroom yesterday does not clearly show the footballer punching 24-year-old schoolteac­her Tim Bowen, Johnson admits hitting him.

Johnson, a 32-year-old father of three who has played 231 AFL matches, has pleaded not guilty to assault occasionin­g bodily harm.

The verdict will be handed down on November 3.
