A man from south-east London has been charged for an alleged attack on two men and a woman while wearing a drawn on moustache as part of fancy dress.

Andrew Cable, 48, of Sedgebrooke Road, Eltham, is accused of two counts of aggravated assault occasioning ABH and one charge of assault by beating.

It is claimed he head-butted a 42-year-old man, punched a 34-year-old man in the face and threw a 28-year-old woman to the floor outside the Tudor Barn pub in the early hours of New Year’s Day.

The attack allegedly took place while the man was in fancy dress, which included a pink shirt and a drawn on moustache and beard.

Cable is due to appear at Woolwich Crown Court on March 25.
