Bury Snooker Club Assault: New Safety Measures

0:00On April 9th, trouble at Radcliffe Central Snooker Club in Berry after a customer got knocked out cold just past 3 a.m. on February 1st. Boss' Space Counselors because the place was serving booze way beyond licensed hours, over three hours late, and a punch to the head left the guy. Unconscious on the floor. CCTV caught the whole thing, a guy shakes the victim's hand, then swings hard, sending him down with a nasty head smack. Police stepped in, but no charges filed so far. It all went down after staff got back from a late Christmas party in Manchester around 11.30 p.m. for some karaoke with regulars. Owner David Morley, who's run the spot for 9 years, called it a total wake-up call out of nowhere. He admitted they lost track of time with drinks, but stressed the club's a community gem-free pool for local disadvantaged kids under supervision. Snooker as the main draw, not heavy boozing. Cops had never been called before. Victim bounced back quick, took a few days off work, and even returned to the club

1:00five days later. Morley worried the salt got logged light as a section 47 instead of graver bodily harm, given how head knocks can turn deadly. Club stays open with new rules, first aid certified staff on duty, stricter last entry times, and a full review of health and safety. Morley's vowing tighter control to keep this hub thriving without repeats.
