Bouncer Jailed For Brutal Attack

Monday, 21 November 2016 09:49

A bouncer who was caught on CCTV punching & kicking a man unconscious outside a Leeds city centre bar where he worked has been jailed for two years.

Leeds Crown Court heard that 23 year old Marcus Saleh was working as a bouncer at Smokestack, on Briggate, when he attacked the victim on July 20 this year.

CCTV footage showed Salah who had been caught by the victim sitting on his mountain bike chained up outside the bar, punching the victim several times before knocking him to the ground and kicking him to the side of the head.

Saleh who pleaded guilty to inflicting grievous bodily harm has since lost his job and has had his licence taken away from him.
