Tom Bush, 22, of Main Street, North Muskham, admitted at Nottingham
Magistrates’ Court to assaulting Inspector Anton Menzies and Mr Terry
Mulligan.
Inspector Menzies, of British Transport Police, had just clocked off and
was waiting to cross the level crossing at Newark Castle station when
the incident occurred, prosecutor Mr David Miles told the court.
Bush cycled along the pavement, collided with Inspector Menzies and came
off his bike.
Bush, who has agoraphobia, was in a state of panic, according to a
psychiatric report presented to the court, Mr Miles said.
When Bush rose to his feet he was shouting and swearing and his fists
were clenched.
Inspector Menzies attempted to restrain him and the cyclist connected
with his chin, causing minimal pain and discomfort, Mr Miles told the court.
