City Centre Pub Avoids Licence Revocation Despite Violent Incidents

A city centre pub has avoided having its premises licence revoked despite warnings from the police over violent incidents. The Three Legs on the Headrow was the subject of a licence review after police were called to an incident outside on February 2. A report to Leeds City Council’s licensing sub-committee said two males threw punches in the pub before being ejected. One left and later went to hospital with “an injury consistent with a stab wound ”, the police report said.

A third male was stabbed after the violence continued away from the pub and officers were called. PC Andy Clifford told the committee there had been a history of such incidents. He said: “There appears to be a low bar for behaviour from the customers. The severity of these stabbings is an escalation of previous events. Further escalation could lead to a fatality.” Following the February 2 incident, an interim review of the licence was carried out and conditions agreed, including door searches
