Local paper (Coleraine Chronicle) when I was at uni, 1990 or thereabouts. Followed within weeks by '"I'm stealing your flowers, you stupid bitch," Portstewart woman is told'.

"Brown and his friends.. had emerged from the Cellar Bar and were surprised to encounter two mounted policemen.
Brown inquired, “How do you feel about your horse being gay?” of one of the policemen, stating that his colleague’s was clearly not gay. After repeated comments on the sexuality of his horse, and despite warnings from the policeman about his behaviour, Brown’s offer of an apology to the horse was rejected and he was handcuffed and taken by the officers to the police station.
The arrest was made at 2.20am on Monday morning, and Brown was in a state which he described as “pissed out of my head”."
