Man charged for mocking 6-year-old cancer patient during a football game.
Bradley Lowery was a young football fan who touched the heart of the Sunderland football community. He was diagnosed with neuroblastoma at eighteen months old, and sadly passed away in 2017 at the age of six.

Last Friday, an image of Bradley was displayed at a match between Sheffield Wednesday and Sunderland, leading to the arrest of two men on Saturday. Dale Houghton, aged 31 from Rotherham, has been charged with a public order offence and was remanded in custody. He is set to appear at Sheffield magistrates court on Monday morning. The other man, aged 27, has been released on bail while police enquiries continue.

In response to the incident, more than £11,000 has been raised for the Bradley Lowery Foundation, a charity set up in his name after his death. This is a testament to the impact Bradley had on so many people, and a clear reminder of his legacy in the Sunderland football community.
