Canadian Gets Jail Time For Biting 14-yr-Old Girl At Green Day Concert

The Canadian Press, 12 Sep, 2017 02:04 PM
    PORTLAND, Ore. — A Canadian man who bit a 14-year-old girl on her right breast during a Green Day concert in Portland, Oregon, last month has been sentenced to 30 days in jail.
     
    Joel Dauncey of Vancouver pleaded no contest Monday to misdemeanour harassment of a sexual or intimate body part.
     
    Court documents say the teen told police she was dancing next to her mother at the Aug. 2 concert when a stranger bit her. She rated the pain as "3'' on a 1-10 scale.
     
    A woman working at the concert told police that Dauncey had been cut off from buying alcohol. The worker said she witnessed the bite.
     
    The 34-year-old man told investigators he does not remember the incident.
     
    The Oregonian/OregonLive reports Dauncey made no statement at his sentencing.
