The court heard that at 1am police on duty outside the Coach nightclub in Banbridge saw the defendant being put out by door staff. Conn tried to get back in and began shouting at staff.

Police told him to move on but he became aggressive and struggled with a constable before he was restrained.

A solicitor representing the defendant said he had just broken up with his long term girlfriend and had turned to drink.

He added that Conn was heavily intoxicated and had no recollection of what happened.
