    A man has been charged and two teenagers cautioned following two separate incidents on the pitch at the Swansea v Manchester City game yesterday.

    Harry Eccles, 21, from Conwy, North Wales, has been charged with going onto the playing area at a football match and is due to appear at Swansea Magistrates’ Court on April 2.

    A 15-year-old Bury and 16-year-old from Swansea also arrested for pitch encroachment have received youth cautions.

    Police match commander Superintendent Steve Jones said:  “The safety of supporters, players, officials and those who work these games is paramount.

    “We will continue to work with the football club to prevent and deter this unacceptable behaviour from a very small minority continuing.”
