News - Solicitor Off The Ropes
Saturday Dec 6
Solicitor off the ropes A two-punch combination came to the help of solicitor David Leach when he tried to calm a violent confrontation outside Burnley Magistrates’ Court. Leach, of the criminal department at the Burnley office of Donald Race & Newton, was attacked by a former local councillor who had been ticked off for using his mobile phone inside the court.
The troublemaker picked the wrong man: former welterweight Leach reacted with pugilistic despatch and landed Noel O’Brien on his backside on the courthouse steps, a court heard last week.
