In Nowra Local Court, Shane John Acton, 39, of Warrego Drive was also fined $200 for trying to return to the pub and ordered to perform 50 hours community service for behaving in an offensive manner in a public place.

Acton was drinking at the Bridge Tavern on September 9 last year when the licensee had him removed for being drunk.

A security officer told him he was not allowed back in for six hours, but 10 minutes later Acton was at the front door arguing with security.

After they refused to let him in, Acton began fighting with a group of people in the street.

The police were called and as they arrived, Acton formed his hand into a pistol shape and threatened to shoot.

An officer put his hand on Acton’s shoulder who then turned and pushed him in the chest.

After some struggling and using capsicum spray, the officers eventually got Acton into a police vehicle where he kicked an officer in the neck.
