A judge has branded the son of Liam Gallagher as “entitled” over a late-night brawl at a Tesco Express.
Gene Appleton Gallagher, 20, and Sonny Starkey, 21, were “young men thinking they can get what they want by misbehaving” when they fought with shop staff, Judge Joanna Greenberg said. The scuffle began at the store in Heath Street, Hampstead, north-west London, shortly before midnight on May 17, 2019, when staff tried to stop their friend, former model Noah Ponte, 21, leaving the shop with a £1.70 can of gin and tonic.
Ponte, a student at UCL who has worked for IMG Models, was unable to pay for it because it was outside the hours Tesco was licensed to sell alcohol, Wood Green Crown Court heard. However, he had paid for nuts of the same value, which he left in the shop, in an attempt to get around the licensing restriction, he told the court.
