A married Weston nightclub owner has been found guilty of assaulting a woman in the town centre.

Vassos Siangolis, who owns Bar Seven in Beach Road, was arrested in November last year after CCTV showed him push Carla Cowlin to the ground in Royal Parade.

Siangolis told police the two were close friends and it came after a misunderstanding which led to her spitting at him.

Miss Cowlin hadn't wanted to press charges but the Crown Prosectuion Service decided to do so.
