A YOB who appeared to urinate on a cancer sufferer in a Snapchat prank is facing a police probe.

Leigh Brookfield, 40, was filmed in the toilets standing next to an older man, who told him of his prostate problems.

The DJ feigns sympathy, saying “Sorry to hear that” — as he seems to pee up the man’s back.

He posted a clip of the incident at Llanelli Tennis and Squash Club in South Wales on Boxing Day but quickly took it down after a backlash.

Brookfield later apologised on Facebook, saying: “It’s just something me and the boys do when we are drunk and until watching the video back I didn’t realise that the nice gentleman next to me was going through health problems.”

Dyfed Powys Police said three people had reported it as assault and the alleged victim had been contacted by an officer.

“The reports concerned an incident which was alleged to have taken place at Llanelli Tennis and Squash Club on Boxing Day.

“The victim has been contacted by an officer, and enquiries into the incident are ongoing.
