'I will kill you': Aussie man jailed over verbal abuse of cops

SINGAPORE - An Australian man, who went into a profanity-laden drunken tirade against three police officers and said he would kill one of them, did not learn his lesson after his arrest in November 2019.

Clarkson, 32, was sentenced to three weeks' jail and a fine of $2,500 on Wednesday , after he pleaded guilty to five charges including two counts of harassment. Seven other charges were considered during sentencing. At around 3am the next day, an intoxicated Clarkson pushed some tables outside a bar in Circular Road and shoved one of its workers who approached him.

On Sept 19, 2021, he became drunk after drinking several pints of beer at bars around Boat Quay and fell asleep in one of them in Circular Road. The prosecutor said: " told the accused that if he did not pay the bill, she would call the police. The accused informed her that he had been arrested before and challenged her to call the police."On another occasion at around 1am on June 26, 2022, Clarkson went to an Orchard Towers nightspot with three people including a Filipino woman, and started behaving in an unruly manner after several drinks.
