CELTIC FAN GUILTY OF SEXUALLY ASSAULTING TEEN IN GLASGOW AFTER TITLE CELEBRATION
Celtic supporter Keir Mackie, aged 20, who sexually assaulted a 15-year-old girl amid celebrations for the club’s title win, has avoided imprisonment.
The incident occurred in Glasgow city centre on May 17, 2025, when Mackie, wearing Celtic gear, sat next to the girl on a bench after an unofficial street bash.
Witnesses observed Mackie winking at another man while he was kissing, touching her inappropriately, exposing her, and groping her.
The young victim was taken to hospital for treatment following the assault.
Mackie was detained at his home after CCTV footage traced him to the scene.
He pleaded guilty to sexual assault, and his sentence was deferred pending background reports until July 2026.
During the court proceedings, Mackie was put on the sex offenders register and granted bail in the meantime.
On July 13, 2026, Mackie was sentenced to 300 hours of community service, tagged for nine months, and required to register as a sex offender for five years.
The judge acknowledged the seriousness of the offence but opted for a community-based sentence rather than imprisonment.
Mackie’s initial plea and cooperation were considered during sentencing.
The young victim was taken to hospital for treatment after the assault, and Mackie’s actions drew widespread condemnation.
