An angry customer threatened a shop worker with an axe after a dispute over a faulty mattress.
Christopher Woo also shattered a mirror and broke a table during the incident at Worldwide Furniture earlier this year. He left the worker terrified and caused more than £1,000 of damage to the Walton Road business.
A judge told Woo he couldn’t just “take the law into your own hands” as he jailed him earlier this week. Joanne Moore, prosecuting, said Woo had bought a mattress from the shop weeks before but had found it had a defect. He then contacted the shop to replace it but that had not yet happened.
