Police have cautioned a Knaresborough man and fined another following an altercation with Sheffield United forward Oli McBurnie last month.

The incident occurred on High Street on Saturday 8th May and saw McBurnie arrested after video footage surfaced online.

The video appeared to show two men mocking the footballer following Sheffield United’s relegation, provoking a violent reaction.

And North Yorkshire Police have said they are no longer appealing for information after issuing a caution and a penalty notice.

A statement on their website said:

“Following an investigation, a man in his 20s has been cautioned for a public order offence, namely using threatening behaviour.

“A second man, also in his 20s, was issued with a penalty notice for a similar offence.

“Police are no longer appealing for information.”
