Dominic Noonan - Personal Life

Personal Life

The Noonan family first rose to notoriety in the Manchester gang scene after the murder of "White Tony" Johnson, the leader of the Cheetham Hill Gang, who was gunned down in 1991.

On 9 August 2011, during the 2011 England riots, Dominic Noonan was caught on film talking to looters in Manchester city centre. The Daily Mail has claimed that Noonan knew Mark Duggan, whose shooting to death by officers from the Metropolitan Police indirectly led to the 2011 England riots. Duggan was a nephew of his brother Desmond's second ex-wife.

The Manchester Evening News on 12 August 2011, reporting the looting cases, reads "Domenyk Noonan, 47, who has changed his name to Lattlay-Fottfoy, from Wellington Road South, Stockport, appeared in court charged with handling stolen alcohol and cigarettes. He did not enter a plea and was remanded in custody."

On 27 October 2012, Noonan was charged under his adopted name by Greater Manchester Police in connection with the alleged rape and false imprisonment of a fifteen year-old boy in Manchester. The trial is provisionally scheduled to take place in April 2013, with a plea hearing preceding it in January.

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    I would rather have as my patron a host of anonymous citizens digging into their own pockets for the price of a book or a magazine than a small body of enlightened and responsible men administering public funds. I would rather chance my personal vision of truth striking home here and there in the chaos of publication that exists than attempt to filter it through a few sets of official, honorably public-spirited scruples.
    John Updike (b. 1932)

    I needed a drink, I needed a lot of life insurance, I needed a vacation, I needed a home in the country. What I had was a coat, a hat and a gun.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
