Gallagher, 20, was charged with a racially-aggravated assault on shopkeeper Hiran Rajput, with Starkey, 21, charged on two counts of assault by allegedly beating on Rajput and his colleague, Shvium Patel.

Meanwhile, Ponte was accused of stealing a can of alcohol and attacking Patel after racially abusing him.Wednesday (March 30) saw the trio stand trial for their charges at Wood Green Crown Court.

According to the Evening Standard, prosecutors dropped the case and charges on the first day of the trial, meaning the accused will not be formally punished.They were criticised by judge Joanna Greenberg, however, who described them as “entitled” and said their behaviour was “completely out of order, no doubt as a result of having been drinking”.Prosecutors reportedly conceded that the Tesco staff involved in the brawl had “over-reacted”.
