A British lawmaker, aged 55, has been sentenced to 10 weeks in prison after pleading guilty to assaulting a 45-year-old man in a drunken rage. The incident took place in Frodsham, northwest England, where the lawmaker, a member of Parliament, punched the constituent in the face multiple times during an altercation in the early hours of October 26.
Surveillance camera footage captured the assault, showing the lawmaker knocking the man into the street and continuing to punch him until bystanders intervened. The victim, although not seriously injured, was fortunate to escape with only minor injuries, as highlighted by the presiding judge.
