Two men charged with assaulting police after a disturbance at Manchester Airport but no officers will face charges

TWO men have been charged with assaulting police after a disturbance at Manchester Airport but no officers will face charges.

Footage of a fracas was shared online in July and prompted protests after it appeared to show a Greater Manchester Police (GMP) officer kicking and stamping on the head of a man as he lay on the floor.

The altercation, in the airport’s Terminal Two, allegedly happened after an earlier confrontation between passengers on a Qatar Airways flight which arrived at 7.20pm on July 23.
