Football star guilty after cop ‘bust-up’
FOOTBALLER Nile Ranger entered a guilty plea minutes before a court was due to see CCTV of him behaving “aggressively” to police officers.
The forward, 30, is said to have sworn and shouted after being arrested on Christmas Day, 2020.
He refused to take a test to see how much alcohol he had drunk, Ealing magistrates court, in West London, heard.
Harry Garside, mitigating, said: “His main bone of contention was that when he was removed from the car, his trousers fell off and his shirt fell off.”
Ranger was given a sixmonth driving ban and ordered to pay £871 costs after admitting failing to provide a specimen of breath and obstructing a police officer.
