Bronson injured in Valentine’s rumble
NOTORIOUS lag Charles Bronson was injured after smearing himself in butter and starting a “rumble” with prison guards on Valentine’s Day, it has emerged.
The 65-year-old was frustrated that he could not see wife Paula, 37, to give her a romantic card.
So in a tactic he has used previously he stripped off and buttered up to make it harder for staff at HMP Frankland to pin him down before challenging them.
But a source last night told how he was wrestled to the floor by 12 guards and restrained, injuring his right shoulder.
The source said: “He was wanting a rumble but he ended up being the only one who got hurt – not like the old days.
“He was in the exercise yard on segregation wing with three other cons in the cage training to next to his.
“He pulled out half a pound of butter and took his clothes off and shouted and smiled to the officer in charge, ‘Oi Gov, you’d better ring your mates as there’s gonna be a bit of a rumble’. He then started spreading the butter all over him.
“He started warming up and was smiling when 12 guards with shields, protective clothing and batons ran to the scene.
“There was lots of ducking and diving but the guards got control of Charlie before he could do any damage. He was restrained on the floor and then sent back to his cell.”
The fracas came after Bronson was moved from HMP Wakefield in January for attacking a deputy governor in a row about his wedding photos.
He previously buttered up to attack 12 officers at Full Sutton Jail in York in 2014 – because he was upset about Arsenal winning the FA Cup.
It is understood Bronson, known to buy foods like butter from the commissary, has had his benefits stopped, his TV and radio removed from his cell and phone calls from loved o ones banned.
His visiting h hours have also been reduced from two to one and he h has had his allowance c cut to £5 a week.
A spokesm spokesman for the Ministry of J Justice said: “We d do not comment on individual
prisoners.” ROAD-RAGE murderer Kenneth Noye has been moved to an open jail just 30 miles from the home of his victim’s dad.
The notorious gangster, sentenced to life 18 years ago after knifing 21- year- old Stephen Cameron to death on a motorway slip-road, is now being held at cushy Standford Hill prison in Kent.
And governors have cleared him for day release – meaning he will soon be allowed out for trips and work placements.
That has left Stephen’s dad Ken terrified he could end up face-to-face with the killer on the streets of his home town.
Outraged
In an exclusive interview yesterday Ken, 71, whose wife Toni died two years ago, said: “As far as I’m concerned life should mean life.
“Toni only ever wanted Noye to come out of jail in a wooden box.
“We never wanted revenge – only justice for Stephen.
“I can’t believe they could be so insensitive to move him so close to home.
“It’s disgusting. I want them to move him as far away as possible from me.
“What about my rights? We’re the people who have suffered all these years. I’m outraged.” The couple’s son Stephen, an electrician, was murdered on the M25 slip road at Swanley, Kent, in 1996.
Noye had cut in front of a van driven by Stephen’s fiancee Danielle Cable, then 17.
When Stephen shook his head in disapproval, Noye stopped at red lights, stormed over and punched him but the younger man fought back. Noye, who had stabbed an undercover cop to death 11 years earlier, returned to his Land- Rover Discovery, grabbed a knife and plunged it into Stephen’s heart.
Ken said: “Noye’s pride got the better of him that day. He did not need to go back and get that knife. He could have just got in his car and driven off. But he didn’t.
“It’s all wrong. Stephen never got a chance at life. Noye should be in jail for the rest of his days.”
Ken, who asked us not to reveal the town he is living in, added: “He’ll be on day trips and home visits soon enough.
“I always dreaded bumping into him in the street and now they’ve gone and put him in an open prison in the same county as me.
“I’m dreading the day he is allowed out.”
Luxuries
Noye, 70, who could be freed by a parole panel next year, was moved to category D Standford Hill on the Isle of Sheppey as it is close to the homes of his sons Kevin and Brett as well as his estranged wife Brenda, 68. He is living in his own single cell on the prison’s B- wing, where inmates are given their own key, are allowed to wear their own clothes, and can receive visits in a newly refurbished visiting hall. Inmates can also earn a string of luxuries, including their own television and
