Both officers received a 12-month conditional discharge and were ordered to pay costs. Northamptonshire Police is now considering misconduct proceedings.
Two police officers have been found guilty of using threatening behaviour during a night out in Kettering last year. Northamptonshire Police is now considering whether misconduct proceedings will take place.
The court heard how Cowie and Taylor were off-duty and socialising with friends when the altercation took place in a Kettering restaurant on December 27, 2021. The pair were "active parties" in an altercation with a man who pleaded guilty to his part of the incident in August 2022. He received a 12-week suspended sentence for 12 months, 150 hours of unpaid work and paid costs and a victim surcharge.
Detective Inspector Andrew Tuff, said: "Police officers are expected to maintain high standards of behaviour both on and off duty. The public have the right to expect those standards not to be breached. Clearly, it's not acceptable for officers to be involved in this type of incident and it's right that the case has been taken to court."
