Bouncers Charged After Hotel Assault | Christchurch News

Two bouncers face charges after a violent altercation caught on video outside Canterbury’s Famous Grouse Hotel—where an 18-year-old was allegedly assaulted after being kicked out. Both men, aged 40 and 45, received court summonses and are set to appear in Christchurch District Court on August 20. The hotel owner has replaced security, tightened entry rules for Wednesday nights (now 19+ only), and pledged a full review of the incident. This case underscores the critical need for professional conduct in security—and the consequences when it’s not upheld.
