Man threw bottle through window

A man who broke a window at the home of his now estranged partner, has been fined by magistrates at Boston.

Steve Jackson, 28, who at the time had been living at Youngs Row, Sutton Bridge but now lives in Cambridge, admitted causing damage when he appeared before magistrates in Boston.

The court was told the couple had been in bed at 4am on October 18 and had been discussing a reconciliation, when he became angry and picked up a beer bottle from the bedside table and threw it, breaking a double glazed window.

Mitigating, Tony De Freitas said the couple had been drinking and Jackson had returned from the pub when he became angry about something his now estranged partner said, and had picked up the bottle and just thrown it and it had broken the window.

He said he had not thrown the bottle at anything in particular but things had now settled down and he had moved to live with his mother.

The magistrates were told Jackson was subject to a suspended prison sentence for driving while disqualified and they extended the period of the suspension by six months for breaching it.

He was fined £133 for causing damage and ordered to pay £100 compensation.
