Fan fined $25 for throwing firework
SYDNEY, Monday. — A football fan who threw a “bunger” at football spectators at yesterday’s St George -Parramatta rugby league match was fined $25 today.
Mr Robert Allen, 43, labourer, of Harris Park, pleaded guilty in Parramatta Court to letting off a firework at Cumberland Oval, Parramatta, in circumstances likely to cause damage to another person.
Constable M. Green told Mr R. J. Bartley, SM. that he had seen Mr Allen light the cracker. It had been thrown and exploded among football fans. No one had been injured “but they were startled”, he said.
Mr Allen was allowed one month to pay the fine.
