A drunken roofer who started a rumpus in a bar lashed out at people at random as he was pursued through the streets by an angry mob. And when police arrived at the scene he assaulted two officers before racially abusing a detention officer at a police station.
Jack Troth sparked trouble in the sports bar in Weston-super-Mare. Bristol Crown Court heard how, having punched and pushed people, he was ejected but caused further mayhem as he was pursued by a posse through the town centre.
Troth, 26, of Albert Road in Evesham, pleaded guilty to affray, two assaults of an emergency worker and causing racially aggravated harassment Judge Michael Cullum jailed him for 93 weeks. He told Troth: "Your trail of mayhem was multi-facited on many different occasions and did not stop."
