Bristol man in court after causing rumpus at Turbo Island

A St Pauls man admitted threatening behaviour at Turbo Island on Stokes Croft in breach of a suspended jail term. But a judge recognised he was grappling with mental health difficulties and handed him a financial penalty.

Toyan Young caused a rumpus in May last year, when he was still subject to a suspended sentence for robbery. Bristol Crown Court heard today (March 9) he was threatening to a police officer responding to a report of assault.

Young, 31, of Dermot Street, pleaded guilty to a public order offence. Judge William Hart fined him £50 for breaching the suspended sentence and £100 for the new offence.
