A police officer described the ‘split second’ decision by a man to attack another with a glass bottle, leaving the victim last Christmas Eve requiring 14 stitches.

PC Malachi Creedon, who investigated, said: “A split-second decision resulted in Louie McKillop spending his Christmas morning in a police custody cell, and a father spending his morning in hospital when he should have been with his children.

McKillop, 24, was at the College Arms in Broadway, Peterborough city centre, at about 11.30pm on Christmas Eve last year when he was having an argument with a member of door staff.

The victim, a man in his 40s, walked past the pair and made a comment to the doorman about McKillop not being very happy, when a couple of seconds later he felt a blow to the back of his head and was knocked to the ground.

With blood pouring down his face, he was told he had been struck with a glass bottle, and later required 14 stitches.

Police arrived and arrested McKillop, who immediately told officers “I’m really, really sorry, it was me” and “I admit everything, I did it”.

However, in interview he answered “no comment” to all questions asked of him.

McKillop, of Hammonds Drive, Fengate, appeared at Cambridge Crown Court on Wednesday.

He was sentenced to nine months in prison, suspended for 18 months, and must carry out 250 hours of unpaid work, after previously admitting assault causing grievous bodily harm (GBH) without intent.

PC Malachi Creedon, who investigated, said: “This behaviour is completely unacceptable, which McKillop knows and has shown remorse. I hope he has had time to reflect on his actions and understands the seriousness of them.”

California commerce chiefs visit to Marshall Cambridge will ‘deepen local ties’ Marshall hosted representatives from North Carolina’s Department of Commerce and economic development partnerships for a tour of its Cambridge headquarters this week “providing a glimpse of the capabilities, heritage and values it will soon be bringing to the state”. A Marshall spokesperson said: “As progress continues on the construction of the company’s new maintenance, repair, overhaul (MRO) and engineering facility at Piedmont Triad International Airport, the visit served to deepen local ties while demonstrating the value Marshall’s presence promises to bring to North Carolina.” The tour covered a range of Marshall’s aerospace operations, including MRO work on the United States Marine Corps fleet of KC-130J airlifters, and heavy engineering projects such as the removal and replacement of aircraft centre wing boxes. “It was incredibly rewarding to showcase our capabilities on home turf to some of the individuals whose support and enthusiasm made it so easy to choose North Carolina as a home for our new U.S. facility,” said Marshall MRO Support Services Director Chris Dare. “Our Cambridge and Greensboro operations may be thousands expertise, apart, but they will share a common commitment to providing mission-critical support for our customers, and I am certain the MRO technical knowledge, expertise and capabilities we have cultivated in the UK will grow and flourish in North Carolina’s thriving aerospace ecosystem.” In addition to Secretary of Commerce Machelle Baker Sanders, the delegation included Christopher Chung, CEO of the Economic Development Partnership of North Carolina, and Brent Christensen, President, and CEO of Greensboro Chamber of Commerce. “This visit yielded a deep understanding of the high-value work Marshall is delivering for the U.S. Marine Corps and more than a dozen other customers around the world,” said Sanders. “As the new facility comes ever-closer to opening its doors, Marshall is a perfect example of how the burgeoning UK-North Carolina relationship will continue to foster skilled employment and economic activity for our state.” Earlier this week, members of Marshall’s senior leadership team also met with the North Carolina delegation at a series of events facilitated by the UK’s Department of Business and Trade during the Farnborough International Airshow. These engagements charted two years of progress since the July 2022 signing of a landmark economic arrangement between North Carolina and the UK to strengthen economic ties and transition to a clean energy economy.
