A RYDE man arrested for being drunk and disorderly has been sentenced. Kevin Lawrence Gallagher, 58, of Newport Street, appeared before the Isle of Wight Magistrates Court on Tuesday (March 30). He admitted being drunk and disorderly in a public place on March 14 of this year. Prosecutor, Liz Miller, showed the court CCTV footage of the incident, which captured a drunken and slurring Gallagher exchanging words with police.

Footage showed Gallagher refusing to go home at the behest of several police officers.
