Saved By The Bell’s Screech in court

Dustin Diamond, the actor who played Screech in the 1990s TV show Saved By The Bell, has appeared in court in Wisconsin.

Diamond is accused of stabbing a man during a bar fight in Port Washington, where he lives.

A criminal complaint charges Diamond with second-degree recklessly endangering safety, disorderly conduct and carrying a concealed weapon.

Diamond posted $10,000 bail before his hearing in Ozaukee County Circuit Court.

Defence lawyer Thomas Alberti requested reduced bail and a jury trial for Diamond, who did not speak in court.

The complaint says Diamond and his fiancee got into a tussle with two men and a woman at the bar on Thursday night.

Diamond told police he accidentally stabbed one of the men while trying to defend his fiancee.
