Tweed charged over cabbie assault

Celebrity Big Brother star Jack Tweed has been charged with assault after allegedly beating up a taxi driver on Bank Holiday Monday.

The 20-year-old, the on-off boyfriend of Jade Goody, was arrested on suspicion of attacking the cabbie during a night out with friends at Club 195 in Epping, Essex.

The group was picked up outside the venue at around 3.40am but reportedly refused to pay the £35 fare up front.

Tweed, of nearby Buckhurst Hill, will appear before Harlow magistrates on May 15.
