Gary Swietek, of Severn Walk, appeared at South Cheshire Magistrates Court in Crewe yesterday, Tuesday. The 45-year-old pleaded guilty to assault by beating of PC Ruston in Winsford on February 25 this year. Police were called following reports of shoplifting. A spokesman for Cheshire Police said: Officers attended and arrested a man on suspicion of shoplifting. He was then further arrested for being drunk and disorderly. The man then became abusive and threatened the officer. The officer sustained a scratch on his forearm as a result and the man was further arrested for an assault on an emergency worker. The defendant admitted stealing a croissant and biscuits worth £1.69 from a Spar shop in Winsford and being drunk and disorderly on Delamere Street on the same day.
CHESTER S Nightingale Court has closed. The Nightingale Court, which opened at the Grade II -listed Chester Town Hall on October 19, 2020, had dozens of Crown Court cases heard at its two courtrooms. Courtroom one was the traditional magistrates courtroom up until 1991, which in recent years had been used for conferences and seminars, but more famously was where ITV s Coronation Street filmed the trial of brothers David Platt and Nick Tilsley in 2019. Courtroom two was the Town Hall s Assembly room, by some way the larger of the two rooms. It was where the Queen and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, had lunch following a visit to Storyhouse in June 2018.
