A DATABASE consultant from Swindon has been ordered to pay £950 for racially abusing a Tube worker after his DNA was left on a cigarette.
The 52-year-old was finally brought to justice at City of London Magistrates’ Court for racially abusing Underground staff at St James’ Park station last November, and then failing to attend court.
He was only caught and traced back to Swindon after station staff retrieved his discarded cigarette and the police sent it off for forensic tests.
