Paul Gascoigne Drunkenly Hits Out At Police

Paul Gascoigne hit a new low yesterday after drunkenly hitting out at police officers at a London train station.
The troubled former football superstar had to be “dragged away” by the officers, and was then strapped into a wheelchair by attending paramedics who took him to the University College Hospital for treatment.
The officers had been called to assist Gazza after he collapsed at St Pancreas station.
Eyewitness Rosie Jeffrey tells the Sunday Mirror, “When he tried to stand he kept falling.
"Two officers came over and he was trying to hit out at them, shouting to be left alone. But he could barely stand and the officers had to drag him away.
"When I looked closer it was Gazza... I couldn't believe my eyes. They wheeled him to the ambulance past crowds of people and he was trying to cover his face.
"But he didn't really know where he was or what he was doing. It was so sad to see."
Gascoigne, who has a history of alcohol addiction, checked himself out of the hospital last night after receiving treatment.
