Pensioner Targeted in Racist Airport Rumble
Warren Easterbrook, a career criminal, caused havoc at Bexleyheath train station when he sat next to a 65-year-old man and started staring him down. When the pensioner tried to walk away, Easterbrook launched a racial tirade, flicked off his hat, and shoved him.
The situation quickly escalated into a full-blown fight. Easterbrook repeatedly punched the man in the face. But the tough pensioner fought back, grabbing a broken bottle of Easterbrook’s own alcohol and slashing the attacker’s neck in self-defence.

At Woolwich Crown Court, Easterbrook pleaded guilty to multiple offences:
- Assault causing actual bodily harm
- Racially aggravated public order offence
- Two thefts
- Common assault
- Three assaults on emergency workers
Judge Slams Criminal History, Orders Immediate Jail
Easterbrook’s rap sheet is extensive – 14 violent crimes and 43 theft-related offences. Judge Andrew Lees condemned his serious crimes. He said: “The only appropriate sentence is immediate imprisonment.”
