Guilty Plea For East Cowes Man Who 'Threatened And Abused' Police

An East Cowes man has pleaded guilty to being threatening and abusive towards police officers.

40-year-old Dean Norris, of Osborne Road, admitted to violent behaviour in court yesterday (Tuesday), according to police.

Officers say they dealt with an incident at the front counter of Newport Police Station last week. A man was said to have become abusive after asking for the return of a seized mobile phone. 

Isle of Wight Police said:

"Our Station Enquiry Officers are here to assist the public and do not deserve to be subjected to this kind of behaviour."

Mr Norris has been remanded in custody.
