Graham Sankey charged over alleged attack on Liverpool councillor Joe Anderson
GRAHAM Sankey – the man who once confessed to the attack for which Michael Shields was wrongly imprisoned – has been charged over an alleged attack on Liverpool’s Labour leader Joe Anderson.
Sankey, 24, of Hillbrook Drive, Walton, was charged with a section 4 public order offence - behaviour likely to cause harrassment, alarm or distress. He was released on conditional bail to reappear at Liverpool Magistrates on November 18.
Cllr Anderson was returning home from the Everton match with his son on Saturday evening when he claims he was threatened and abused by two men, before one attacked his car leaving two dents in the roof.
