A 21-year-old man, Wiktor Kuca, is released after a court case involving a violent incident at a Manchester bar. The reports say Kuca headbutts a bouncer at Walkabout in the city centre following a dispute over whether he could take a bottle of WKD outside.

Both outlets describe the same sequence of events: staff refuse permission to take the drink out, Kuca becomes involved in a row, and the confrontation escalates physically. The Daily Record adds that Kuca produces a knife during the altercation. In the Irish Mirror account, the focus is on the same allegation of a knife being swung at the bouncer and the fact that Kuca walks free from court.

The difference in emphasis between the two reports is primarily wording—one highlights the “swinging” aspect and the outcome of the case, while the other underscores the knife appearing after the alcho-pop dispute. Neither source provides additional detail on sentencing, legal reasoning, or unrelated charges in the material provided.
