A BOUNCER threatened a bar manager a day after one of her colleagues was sacked, a court heard yesterday.

Cheromie Antoinette Arrica Lynch, 33, of Hundens Lane, Darlington, pleaded guilty to using threatening words and behaviour on May 2 at Darlington Magistrates' Court yesterday.

James Thomas, prosecuting, said she worked as a doorwoman at DL3 pub, in Duke Street.

She had an argument with the bar manager about a fellow bouncer on May 2.

Alan Green, mitigating, said: "She admits she was abusive and her head was moving about because she was in a heightened state and there was a clash of heads."

Lynch was fined £100, and ordered to pay £40 costs, £100 compensation and £15 Victim Support surcharge.
