A former keep fit fanatic threatened to stab and shoot a pub regular, held up an off licence at knifepoint and vowed to rape the mothers and girlfriends of police after he went on a lager and Jack Daniels fuelled rampage.
Later, after ex-gym disciple Samuel Tinker, 32, had sobered up and was shown CCTV footage of his hour long violence spree, he confessed: ''I was so hammered - if I did it, I did it.'' Tinker, a groundsman, had got drunk at his local before turning on a fellow tippler at random saying: “what the f**k are you looking at. I’m not a f*****g muppet, I’ll stab, slash, and shoot you.”
He then left the premises and staggered to a nearby store where attempted to steal Jack Daniels mixer cans from the shelves. When confronted by an assistant, Tinker threatened him with a craft knife saying: “I am English - you’re a f*****g Iraqi, Iranian or Pakistani.''
