BREAKING: Scotland footballer Oli McBurnie cleared of assaulting a fan during pitch invasion
Scotland and Sheffield United striker Oli McBurnie has been cleared of assaulting a fan during a pitch invasion.
But finding him not guilty of a single charge of assault by beating, District Judge Leo Pyle said his judgment was based on evidence heard in court and ‘not the instant judgment of social media’. Clearing McBurnie, District Judge Pyle said of mobile phone footage of the alleged attack: ‘The defendant’s foot is nowhere near Mr Brinkley’s left shin. He quickly and clearly lifts his leg up to avoid the complainant.’
The court has heard a Forest season ticket-holder, aged 30, was handed a 24-week jail sentence two days after he head-butted Sharp, causing an injury to his mouth.
