No jail for cop-assault Ms Dynamite

"Deeply ashamed" Ms Dynamite has escaped jail after admitting assaulting a police woman.

The singer was ordered to do 60 hours of community service, however, and to pay £750 compensation to WPC Caryn Marles as well as a £500 fine.

Her solicitor Anthony Burton told Bow Street magistrates' court: "She apologies to the officer. She is deeply ashamed."

Mercury-prize-winning Ms Dynamite hit the officer in the face after a fight outside a London nightclub two weeks ago. Mr Burton explained to the court that the row was triggered when Dynamite's 18-year-old sister was racially abused.
