Prosecutor Keith Laidlaw said one man man suffered injuries “when bottles were smashed and bottles where thrown around”.

Aarons, 21, is accused of violent disorder in relation to the 3am incident last October.

His solicitor Geoffrey Forrester said told Newcastle JPs that the allegations would be “seriously contested”.
