A man has been charged with racially aggravated offences after an incident near a college.
David Noutch, of no fixed abode, has been charged with a racially aggravated offence under the Public Order Act, racially aggravated assault, threatening with a bladed article in a public place and assault by beating.
He is also charged with two counts of assaulting a constable and causing criminal damage.
Police were called to Bradford College in West Yorkshire on Thursday morning after being told about a man being armed with what looked like a knife. The man was detained by college security staff and then arrested.
Noutch, 31, who West Yorkshire Police say “self-defines as white British”, is in custody and is due before Leeds magistrates this morning.
