WEMBLEY: Top cop's yob fright

Top cop's yob fright

A top policeman says he is too scared to travel on his own late at night after being attacked on a train.

Metropolitan Police Federation chairman Inspector Glen Smyth was punched for tackling a lout after an England match at Wembley. He suffered a black eye and cuts.

The 49-year-old told a court: "I don't feel I could be on my own on late-night trains. I felt extremely shaken."

Ian Bird, 27, of Bracknell, Berks, admitted assaulting a police officer, disorderly behaviour and resisting an officer.
