West Midlands Police officer David Clayton was fired after pleading guilty to assaulting a man in a pub fight, despite no prior record and 19 years of service.
West Midlands Police officer PC David Clayton was dismissed after admitting to assaulting a man during a pub fight at the Belbroughton Club on November 3, 2024.
Despite having no prior disciplinary record and 19 years of service, Clayton, who pleaded guilty to causing actual bodily harm, was sentenced to a 12-month community order and 150 hours of unpaid work.
CCTV showed he was assaulted earlier that evening but was under no immediate threat during the altercation.
A misconduct hearing found his actions a gross breach of police standards, undermining public trust, and incompatible with his role, leading to his dismissal despite a sergeant’s recommendation for a final warning.
