Liam Gallagher namesake attacked trio outside Durham bar after spouting 'homophobic' abuse

A drunken thug attacked a couple and their friend outside a Durham city centre bar after spouting homophobic and misogynistic abuse.

Liam Gallagher had been kicked out of a pub for being too drunk when he began hurling abuse at the three victims, who were enjoying a night out together on August 8, last year. The 31-year-old then went on to punch one of the young women in the face, causing her to fall and hit her head on the pavement before he punched her boyfriend and caused lasting damage to his front teeth.

Following that attack, Gallagher, who had been drinking whiskey, targeted the couple's friend and punched her in the face before throwing bags of rubbish at her. The incident left one of the women with concussion and is terrified to back into Durham city centre.
