Arsenal legend Jens Lehmann learns punishment after chainsaw attack

Arsenal legend Jens Lehmann has learned his punishment after attacking a neighbour’s garage with a chainsaw.

The 54-year-old was fined £112,000 by a court in Munich after being found guilty of property damage and attempted fraud after the alleged incident in 2022.

Lehmann, a member of Arsenal’s fabled ‘invincibles’, was initially handed a 10-month suspended prison sentence and fined more than £350,000 after attacking the neighbour’s garage in Bavaria.

According to The Sun, a deal was reached between prosecutors and Lehmann’s lawyers prior to the trial’s resumption.

Lehmann cut through the beams of his neighbour’s property at Lake Starnberg after claiming they obstructed his view.

The former goalkeeper’s legal representative Florian Ufer told German media: “Mr Lehmann accepts responsibility. He has come to an agreement with his neighbour. The parking fees have been paid.”

Lehmann’s legal team also read out a statement outside court: “Today’s decision is a very good result. The previous district court verdict was excessive, as today’s reduction of the fine by around 70 per cent clearly shows.”

The German’s old side next face a visit from newly-promoted Leicester City on Saturday (September 28) as they seek to put the disappointment of their 2-2 draw with Man City behind them.
