A man who kicked a police officer and made sexual comments towards staff at a Peterborough shop has been fined and ordered to work 150 hours unpaid.

37 year old Ryan Morgan of Fengate, was aggressive and abusive towards staff in May

He was sentenced to pay £50 in compensation to one of the shop staff and £75 in compensation to the police officer.

PC Niamh Skipworth, who investigated, said: “Morgan’s intimidating and violent behaviour was completely unacceptable, and no one should have to experience that in the workplace.

“Retail crime, such as violence against staff, is something we are tackling but we need reports from the businesses to build investigations and identify those involved.”
