A PA with the Newspaper Society punched a ticket inspector in the face and racially abused another in a foul-mouthed tirade, following a night’s drinking, when challenged at Liverpool Street Underground Station.
Chloe Flynn, 21, of The Bramblings, Chingford, was drowning her sorrows following the end of a two-year relationship with a boyfriend and flew into a rage as she traveled home with a girl pal.
She pleaded guilty to assaulting Stephen Aquino by beating on October 1 and using racially aggravated threatening behaviour at the station (pictured).
City of London Magistrates’ Court heard it was 10.30 pm when Flynn used her ticket to pass through a ticket barrier at the station, followed by her friend.
Staff asked to see her friend’s ticket, explained prosecutor Mr. Joe Sentence. “That seemed to inflame the situation and there was an accusation staff stole the ticket.
“Miss Flynn punched the ticket inspector on the nose and called another member of staff ‘a chinky little cunt’.”
The court heard Miss Flynn, employed at their High Holborn head office by the world’s oldest publishers’ association, which represents local and regional newpapers, has never been in trouble with the police before.
She was fined £250, with £90 costs, and ordered to pay the victim £50 compensation.
