THREE drinkers have been punished for their part in a 15-man pub brawl.

Jonathon Ford, aged 22, Daniel Dunn, aged 25, and Danny Long, aged 22, got involved in a fight at the Guy Earl of Warwick, Welling High Street.

The Old Bailey heard how the fight started after a row in the gents' toilets of the pub, on April 23 this year.

Police officers dashed into the pub to try to stop the fight but one of them was attacked by Ford when he tried to intervene.

Ford, of Falconwood Parade, Welling, who pleaded not guilty to affray, was given a 24-month supervision order and ordered to do 150 hours' community service.

Long, of Lovell Avenue, Welling, and Dunn, of Windsor Drive, Dartford, both admitted affray and were each fined £800.

A fourth man, Daryle Long, aged 44, was cleared by the Old Bailey jury.
