Former Soldier’s Violent Outburst in Nottingham | Nottingham News

A former British Army soldier with a history of PTSD and drug use, Arran Kennerdale, made terrifying threats and resisted arrest after a morning confrontation with security guards in Nottingham — just 15 days after being given a suspended sentence for assaulting a former partner. The guards, trying to help him while he was clearly impaired, called police — but Kennerdale, who yelled he’d “smash your f jaw,” fought back before officers arrived. Facing charges for public order, resisting arrest, and breaching his suspended sentence, Kennerdale has a long criminal record but his lawyer says he’s stable and trying to get better — though still dependent on Diazepam. The judge gave him a chance: stay clean and housed for six months, and he might avoid jail when sentenced in January — a tense balancing act between trauma, addiction, and accountability.
