“On 10 July he was caught on CCTV walking up to the entrance and throwing pots of eggs, mayonnaise, and bread at the door.”
Fatah, of no fixed abode, appeared back at Peterborough Magistrates’ Court on Friday (11 October) and was jailed for 22 weeks after admitting three counts of criminal damage, two counts of assault by beating of an emergency worker, theft of £20 worth of cleaning products from Savers, in Westgate, Peterborough city centre, and making threats to destroy or damage property.
He was also told to pay £130 in compensation to the driver of a car he had smashed the window of in Lincoln Road, Millfield, on 8 October.
