Read our privacy policy A husband and wife who sparked a nightclub brawl which left a female bouncer injured and a police officer nursing a sore groin have been spared jail. Police then arrived at the scene “en masse” and wrestled Ms Loveridge to the ground prompting her husband to become involved in the altercation. Ms Loveridge then kicked a police officer in the groin and broke his glasses as she resisted arrest while Mr Loveridge spat on an officer after being pepper sprayed. “Mr Loveridge then became involved concerned about his wife who has never been pinned down by police officers before and never involved in this sort of incident at a public house before.” During the struggle, Ms Loveridge kicked out “to free herself” and “made contact with the officer’s groin”, the court heard.
