Compensation: The assaulted officer was awarded compensation of £50.
A TWENTY-eight-year-old Carlisle man has been given a curfew after he admitted assaulting a police officer.
Luke Jackson, of Hope Street, committed the offence on August 29 in Carlisle.
After hearing the details at the city's Rickergate court, magistrates gave the defendant a community order. It includes a four-week curfew, to run from 7pm to 7am each day.
The defendant must also pay the officer he assaulted compensation of £50.
In addition, said magistrates, he must pay costs of £85 and a £95 victim surcharge. Jackson's guilty plea was taken into account.
