Court Appearance Over Alleged Incident At Market Harborough Pub

A man has denied charges including criminal damage and common assault following an alleged incident at The Roebuck pub in Market Harborough.

Luke Keeber, 34, of Bloomfield Road, Leicester, pleaded not guilty to charges relating to incidents on September 26th when he appeared at Leicester Magistrates’ Court.

They include criminal damage to an exterior door at the pub off Rockingham Road, valued at £800, common assault against a member of staff, and using threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour with the intention of causing fear of, or provoking, unlawful violence.

Keeber is also accused of using violence to gain entry to a property in Market Harborough, knowing someone was inside who opposed the entry.

A separate charge alleges criminal damage to a Honda Jazz car on the same date.

He was remanded in custody and is due to appear back in court next month for a further hearing.
