A couple who were allegedly dragged out of a toilet cubicle of a pub and pepper sprayed after refusing to stop having sex have appeared in court.
Lee Hopps, 30 and Hayley McClory, 23, appeared at Newton Aycliffe Magistrates Court charged with resisting arrest and a public order offence at Stanley Jefferson public house in Bishop Auckland.
Both denied the charges, which followed allegations that they were dragged naked from the cubicle of the Wetherspoons pub in front of fellow drinkers, at about 8.30pm on January 28.
