A father tried to storm his ex-partner's home before clambering on to the roof in an "extraordinary" five-hour standoff where he demanded cigarettes and McDonald's from police.
Paul Rutledge, 32, flung tiles at officers during the showdown, after he had tried to enter the house of his ex-partner Sarah McPartland.
A court heard Rutledge was under a restraining order stopping him contacting the woman but started banging on her door in Widnes, Cheshire, in the early hours of March 21.
