A football fan who was jailed for punching Jack Grealish after running onto a football pitch has been found dead.
Tributes have been pouring in for Paul Mitchell, 32, after he was reportedly found dead at an address in Birmingham. Mitchell admitted that he invaded the pitch "as a joke" on March 10, 2019, as he plead guilty to assault before serving four weeks of his sentence.
As reported by the Mirror, he was also handed a 10-year ban from attending football matches as part of his punishment. A number of fellow football fans have shared tributes to Mitchell on social media with messages coming in from Birmingham City fans, as well as supporters of other clubs.
