He refused to provide his identification details and continued to be abusive despite police warnings.
When he was arrested he said: “Portadown cops are b---ds.”
A defending solicitor for Hynds said this was totally out of character.
It was a friend’s birthday and he had taken a considerable amount of drink.
Hynds was embarrassed at what he had done and would apologise to police, added the solicitor.
