Former PC Alexander Kean was previously a hero when he rescued a man in treacherous conditions but has now been sacked without notice
An off-duty police officer - once branded a hero - knocked a man to the ground and repeatedly punched him in the head following a drunken confrontation in a Merseyside takeaway. Merseyside Police Constable Alexander Kean appeared before a gross misconduct hearing on September 13 where he faced allegations of breaching the force's standards of professional behaviour following the late night assault earlier this year.
The hearing found Kean had breached the standards of professional behaviour in relation to discreditable conduct. Chief Constable Kennedy said: 'Based on the evidence of the CCTV footage which I have viewed, I am satisfied that PC Kean has breached the standards of professional behaviour namely discreditable conduct.
