Man in court after footballer struck by seat at game

At a Dundee game, a supporter of Aberdeen was charged with throwing part of a chair, which hit and injured one of the team’s players.

Following Saturday’s Scottish Premiership defeat against Dundee United, Jack MacKenzie’s side was struck in the head.

David Gowans, 31, is accused of throwing a seat into Mr. MacKenzie’s severe injury and permanent disability at Tannadice Park because he acted in a culpable and reckless manner.
