Alfie Holt, a 20-year-old Manchester United fan with a season ticket in the Stretford End, attended the Manchester derby at Old Trafford on April 6, 2025. After the match, he shouted abuse at Manchester City players near the tunnel. When Jack Grealish responded and a verbal altercation ensued, Holt slapped Grealish on the chin and cheek. He was later arrested outside the ground and cooperated with police during his interview.

In spring 2023, Xin Zhang, a long-time member of the Tom Husband Leisure Centre at the University of Salford, entered the sauna after swimming. He pulled his shorts down and touched himself while staring at a woman through the sauna window, causing her distress.

Zhang provided inconsistent accounts, claiming he was warming his genitals due to being cold or adjusting his shorts for eczema, but magistrates found his actions were for sexual gratification.
