Greg Rewston (27), of Sherwood Road, Worksop, admitted to the charges against him after trying to pull a policeman away from his duties, while arresting his friend.

The man was said to be trying to retain his money from his friend, who he’d given to earlier in the day.

Mr Rewston has been ordered to pay £565 to cover the fine and court costs, and will pay it in instalments of £50 per week.

Mr Rewston, who is a plasterer, and has a nine-year-old son, said he ‘regrets’ his actions as they are ‘out of character’.
