Three men have been charged with ‘affray’ following an incident last weekend.

About 7.45pm on Saturday, February 3, a 33-year-old Padstow man was at a licenced premises in Glenmore Park.

He was sitting by himself, consuming alcoholic beverages. It is alleged he has made a comment or insult towards a 21-year-old Glenmore Park man.

The 21-year-old and a 48-year-old Glenmore Park man have approached the 33-year-old. It is alleged the 48-year-old has grabbed the 33-year-old by the shirt and pulled him to the ground.

Police claim the 21-year-old and 48-year-old have punched the 33-year-old a number of times, before being separated by security. It is alleged that the 33-year-old has moved around the security guard and punched the 21-year-old again.

Again, the trio were punching each other and the 33-year-old and 21-year-old have moved towards the exit.

Police were contacted and attended. On attending, they saw the 21-year-old and a security officer wrestling on the ground.

Police have handcuffed the 21-year-old. All parties were spoken to and eventually calmed down and the cuffs were removed from the 21-year-old.

At this time, the 33-year-old man had left. CCTV was viewed and confirmed all the persons actions.

Police used a dog to search for the 33-year-old and located him a short distance from the licenced premises.

All men were charged with ‘affray’ and will front Penrith Local Court in March.
