Senior Constable Burrell said English challenged police to a fight when they spoke with him. English, who pleaded guilty in Caloundra Magistrates Court to one count of public nuisance, said he didn t try to start a fight with police. I didn t challenge anyone to a fight, he said. Yes, I got charged with drinking in public and then I walked away and said, thanks very much have a good day and they asked me to stop and that s when they arrested me. Magistrate Haydn Stjernqvist fined English $450. A conviction was recorded.
