Giddy up: Celtic fan chucks burger at police horse

A note from English police horses: lettuce alone.

Greater Manchester Police were on the lookout for a hamburglar after a Celtic supporter in town for Tuesday's Champions League group closer with Manchester City allegedly threw a burger at a police horse.

Local police were quick to arrest the culprit, throwing the Bhoys badman in the back of the pattie wagon, were he proceeded to have a kick-about that rivaled the one his Hoops displayed in a 1-1 stalemate at the Etihad.

No word yet if the maddened meatball bears any relation to the Newcastle supporter made famous by a 2013 punching incident with a police horse, though this nefarious nitwit is certain to have a mare of a time in jail tonight.

Grill-ty as charged.
