Man sentenced for being drunk and disorderly in Milton Keynes

A man has been convicted of being drunk and disorderly in Milton Keynes.

Liam Russell, aged 30, of The Hide, Netherfield, was found guilty of one count of being drunk and disorderly and one count of obstructing/resisting a constable in the execution of their duty at Milton Keynes Magistrates’ Court on February 26.

It follows an incident in Farthing Grove, Netherfield last September in which Russell was intoxicated and acting in a disorderly manner. He then resisted arrest.

He was given a 12-month conditional discharge, and ordered to pay £200 costs and a £20 Victim Surcharge.

Investigating officer PC David Smith said: “Drunken misbehaviour and the obstruction of police officers carrying out their duties to uphold the law and protect the public will not be tolerated.”
