July 20th 2011 - Drunkard racially abused police officer
A DRUNK man chased a city taxi driver around his cab brandishing a bottle and then racially abused the police officer who arrested him.

Kwesi Cairns, of Harescombe Drive, Kingsholm, was warned by District Judge Martin Brown that his "appalling" behaviour could result in a prison sentence. He told the 31-year-old, who was appearing at Gloucester magistrates court on Monday: "Attacks on taxi-drivers who are just trying to do their jobs are all too frequent and your behaviour was appalling."

Cairns, who has a previous conviction for racially aggravated assault, pleaded guilty to common assault, racially aggravated harassment and criminal damage.

Prosecuting solicitor David Nicholas said Mohammed Bah had driven to Barton Street on June 16 but discovered five people wanted to get in the cab, when he could only take four. "The defendant became angry and the taxi-driver locked his door. But the defendant put his hand through the open window and opened it. "The rest of the group told the defendant to leave it and suggested they all walk, but the defendant shouted at the taxi-driver that he was going to bash his head. "The defendant then kicked out at the car and started to chase the taxi-driver around the vehicle waving a bottle."

The police were called and arrested Cairns but while in custody "he shouted at one of the officers, who was of mixed race, calling him 'Uncle Tom, a half-breed and a disgrace'," said Mr Nicholas. Cairns told the court: "I made a series of bad mistakes that night, which happened because I had been drinking too much. "That's not me as a person."

District Judge Brown said: "This is very serious and has happened to you before. I am ordering a pre-sentence report to be prepared on you with all-options, which includes custody."

Cairns will appear for sentencing at Cheltenham today.
