Drunken Chell yob left taxi driver needing eight stitches after throwing beer glass at his head DRUNKEN Nathan Pass left a taxi driver needing eight stitches after he threw a beer glass at his head. The 20-year-old had been drinking at the Barley Mow in Biddulph when he assaulted Ahmed Hussain. He picked up the glass and hurled it at his victim, causing it to shatter. Mr Hussain needed hospital treatment for a deep wound to his ear. Prosecutor Neil Ahuja told Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court: “Ahmed Hussain was called to the Barley Mow in Biddulph on March . “He was there to collect a pre-booked fare when two men got into the taxi. It was clear to him that they were not the fare he was waiting for. He told them to get out of the vehicle but they didn’t, so he agreed to take them on their journey anyway. “When they arrived in Chell Heath he asked for the money. The other male tipped some liquid down the taxi driver’s back and he told them to get out of the car. “The taxi driver then got out to close the doors of the vehicle and the defendant walked some distance away. He then turned and threw a glass at him and it hit him on the right hand side of his face. “The taxi driver was bleeding and both men ran from the scene. The driver got back into his taxi and flagged down a passing police car. He sustained a deep wound to his ear and he required eight stitches. “The victim said the incident left him in fear and is terrified to work.” Pass, of Petersfield Road, Chell, pleaded guilty to wounding. Jason Holt, mitigating, said: “This man was 10 metres away from the taxi driver when he threw the glass. “It was thrown towards him as a demonstration of his annoyance at the time, not to assault him. It was reckless. “The defendant tells me that he has been collected by this taxi driver since this day without any problem. There have been no further incidents and this shows the taxi driver is still able to work. “In August last year, the defendant split with his partner and the mother of his child and he’s not seen her since. “He has gone through a period of going completely off the rails and he is now looking at making positive changes in his life.” Recorder Roger Evans sentenced Pass to 12 months in a young offenders’ institute. Recorder Evans said: “There’s an unfortunate pattern of drunkenness and public disorder in your record, but I’m satisfied it is in the lesser category. This was a drunken, yobbish piece of behaviour. Taxi drivers provide a very valuable public service and people who do this sort of thing can only expect to go to prison.” Read more: http://www.stokesentinel.co.uk/Drunken- ... z3Jo9oBlug |
