NI's Boxing Captain Sean McComb Involved In Nightclub Incident

Northern Ireland's boxing captain Sean McComb has allegedly been involved in a incident at a nightclub on the Gold Coast.

According to reports, the 25-year-old has been banned from areas of the Gold Coast at the Commonwealth Games after he was issued with an infringement notice for causing public nuisance (violence). It is understood that police were called to the Surfers Paradise nightclub to reports of a disturbance at about 2.45am, local time.

McComb, who lost in the last 16 of the light-welterweight division on Sunday, has reportedly been banned from the Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach Safe Night Precincts areas.
